Question

Which of the following is correctly matched? [a] $C_6{H}_6$ (Benzene) : All C-atom are $s{p}^2$ hybridized [b] ${(C{H}_3)}_{4}C:$ All C-atom are $s{p}^3$ hybridized [c] $HC=C-CH=C{H}_2$ : Four C-atom are sp-hybridized [d] ${(C{H}_3)}_{2}C=C{H}_2$ : Three C-atom are $s{p}^2$ hybridized

• A. A, B
• B. A, C
• C. A, D
• D. B, C

Answer 1

Answer: (A)

All carbon atoms in benzene are sp2 hybridised and all carbon atoms in neo-pentane $[{(C{H}_3)}_{4}C]$ are $s{p}^3$ hybridized.
