Question

Find the species which is not perfectly planar.

• A. $\dot{C}{H}_3$
• B. $\dot{C}H{F}_2$
• C. $:C{H}_2$
• D. $\dot{N}{O}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is B $\dot{C}H{F}_2$

$\dot{C}{H}_3$ is planar with $s{p}^2$ hybridization.

$\dot{C}H{F}_2$ is non planar with $s{p}^3$ hybridization.

$:C{H}_2$ is planar with $s{p}^2$ hybridization.

$\dot{N}{O}_2$ is planar with $s{p}^2$ hybridization.
