Question

The state of hybridization of S in $S{O}_2$ is similar to that of

• A. C in $C_2{H}_2$
• B. C in $C_2{H}_4$
• C. C in $C{H}_4$
• D. C in $C{O}_2$

Answer 1

The correct option is B

C in $C_2{H}_4$

$S{O}_2$ & $C_2{H}_4$ have ${sp}^2$ hybridisation.
The Carbon atoms in $C_2{H}_2$ and $C{O}_2$ has sp hybridisation.
The Carbon atom in $C{H}_4$​​​​​​​ has ${sp}^3$ hybridisation.
