Organic Chemistry Some Basic Principles and Techniques - Result Question 7
####7. The state of hybridization of $C_2, C_3, C_5$ and $C_6$ of the hydrocarbon,
is in the following sequence:
(a) $s p^{3}, s p^{2}, s p^{2}$ and $s p$
(b) $s p, s p^{2}, s p^{2}$ and $s p^{3}$
(c) $s p, s p^{2}, s p^{3}$ and $s p^{2}$
(d) $s p, s p^{3}, s p^{2}$ and $s p^{3}$
Show Answer
Solution:
- (d)
8 .
(b) $C-1$ is $s p$ hybridized $(C \equiv C)$
$C-3$ is $s p^{3}$ hybridized $(C-C$ ) $C-5$ is $s p^{2}$ hybridized $(C=C)$
Thus the correct sequence is $s p, s p^{3}, s p^{2}$.
