What are hybridisation states of each carbon atom in the following compounds?
,,
(CH3)2CO ,C6H6
A1) Hybridisation : When two and more than two types of orbitals having less energy difference are combined and form same number of new orbital having similar shape and energy but different orientations.
Application.
Helps to identify the shape and geometry of molecules.
In ‘c’ 3 types of hybridisation exist.
Sp3 ,Sp2, Sp.
C1= Sp2 , C2 = Sp, O=Sp2 C1= Sp3 , C2 = Sp2, C3=Sp2
C1= Sp2 , C2 = Sp2, CN=Sp
C1= Sp3 , C2 = Sp2, C3=Sp3
