Hybridization of 1 and 2 carbon atom in 1 C H ₂= 2 C = CH ₂ are
Options
- As p, s p
- Bs p^2, s p^2
- Cs p^2, s p
- Ds p^3, s p^2
Correct answer
C. s p^2, s p
Step-by-step solution
In this compound carbon atoms have following hybridization : s p^2 1 C H ₂ = s p 2 C = CH ₂ Carbon one contains one bond and carbon two contains two bonds and hence show s p^2 and s p hybridization respectively.
