Question

The bond between carbon atom (1) and carbon atom (2) in compound $N\equiv \underset{1}{C}-C\underset{2}{H}=C{H}_2$ involves respectively the hybrid orbitals:

• A. $s{p}^2$ and $s{p}^2$
• B. $s{p}^3$ and $sp$
• C. $sp$ and $s{p}^2$
• D. $sp$ and $sp$

Answer 1

The correct option is C $sp$ and $s{p}^2$

$C1$ has $sp$ and $C2$ has $s{p}^2$ hybridization.

Hence, option $C$ is correct.
