detailed solution

Correct option is A

NO2+ has 16 valence electrons. There arrangement will be :o....- N = o.... Two pairs of electrons around N implies linear geometry involving sp hybridization. NO3 has 24 (= 5 x 3 x 6 + 1) valence electrons. These are arranged as   

There are three pairs of electrons around N. Its geometry will be trigonal planar and will result from sp2 hybridization. NH4+ has  sp3 hybridization.
