Chemical Bonding And Molecular Structure Question 483
Question: The bond between carbon atom (1) and carbon atom (2) in compound $ N\equiv \overset{1}{\mathop{C}},-\overset{2}{\mathop{C}},H=CH_2 $ involves the hybrid as
Options:
A) $ sp^{2} $ and $ sp^{2} $
B) $ sp^{3} $ and sp
C) sp and $ sp^{2} $
D) sp and sp
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: C
Solution:
- $ C^{1} $ has $ 2\sigma - $ and $ 2\pi - $ bonds (sp hybridized). $ C^{2} $ has $ 3\sigma $ and $ 1,\pi - $ bond ( $ sp^{2} $ hybridized). Note hybridized orbitals never form $ \pi - $ bonds.
