Question

Choose the correct code of characteristics for the given order of hybrid orbitals of same atom,
$sp<s{p}^2<s{p}^3$
(i) Electronegativity
(ii) Bond angle between same hybrid orbitals
(iii) Size
(iv) Energy level

• A. (ii), (iii) and (iv)
• B. (iii), (iv)
• C. (ii) and (iv)
• D. (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv)

Answer 1

The correct option is B (iii), (iv)

Bond angle and electronegativity has $sp>s{p}^2>s{p}^3$.
Size and energy level has $sp<s{p}^2<s{p}^3$.
