Solution
Aryl Halides:-
It is a type of an aromatic organic compound in which one or more hydrogen atoms attached to the aromatic ring is replaced by halide ( )
Aromatic compounds are cyclic, conjugated, and planar organic compounds having - bond electron count.
Hybridization:-
Mixing of atomic orbitals to form new hybrid orbitals, which is necessary to maximize the stability of electrons in their orbitals.
hybridization refers to the hybrid orbital that are formed, when one pi () bond is required for the double bond and three sigma () bonds are required for the single bonds per carbon atom.
In hybridization, 1-s and 2-p orbitals overlap.
Therefore, in an aryl halide halogen atom is bonded to hybridized carbon atom.
