Solution

The correct option is B


Here:

1s orbital + 1p orbital 2 sp hybrid orbitals

1s orbital + 2p orbital 3 sp2 hybrid orbitals

1s orbital + 3p orbital 4 sp3 orbital (hybrid)

So,whenever we are getting sp3 orbitals, we are getting 4sp3 orbitals.

s - charcter = Number of sorbital involved in hybridizationNumber of hybrid orbitals = 14
