Hydrogen azide, HN 3 , can exist in two forms. One form has the three nitrogen atoms

Question:

Hydrogen azide, HN3, can exist in two forms. One form has the three nitrogen atoms connected in a line; and the nitrogen atoms form a triangle in the other. Construct Lewis structures for these isomers and describe their shapes. Other interesting derivatives are nitrosyl azide (N4O) and trifluoromethyl azide (CF3N3). Describe the shapes of these molecules based on a line of nitrogen atoms.
