BAIEEE 2002 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 212 English Option 2

Step-by-step explanation



(a) AIEEE 2002 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 212 English Explanation 1

(b) AIEEE 2002 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 212 English Explanation 2

(c) AIEEE 2002 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 212 English Explanation 3

(d) AIEEE 2002 Chemistry - Chemical Bonding & Molecular Structure Question 212 English Explanation 4

So, option (B) is correct

Note :
If in carbon(C) all 4 bonds are sigma bond then it is sp3 hybridization and if there is 3 sigma bond then sp2 and if there is only 2 sigma bond there sp hybridization.
