NEET Solved Paper 2014 Question 45
Question: Which of the following organic compounds has same hybridisation as its combustion product $ -(CO _2) $ ? [AIPMT 2014]
Options:
A) Ethane
B) Ethyne
C) Ethene
D) Ethanol
Show Answer
Answer:
Correct Answer: B
Solution:
Hybridisation of carbon = $ sp^{3} $ -number of $ s{p^{3-number,\pi -bonds}} $
In $ CO _2,(O\underset{1\pi }{\mathop{=}},C\underset{1\pi }{\mathop{=}},O) $
hybridisation of carbon = $ s{p^{3-2}}=sp $ In ethyne or acetylene,
$ C _2H _2,,(H-C\overset{2\pi }{\mathop{\equiv \equiv }}C-H) $ hybridisation of carbon = $ s{p^{3-2}}=sp $
