Hybridisation in CH(3), overset(+)(C)H(3...

Hybridisation in `CH_(3), overset(+)(C)H_(3) and overset(-)CH_(3)` are respectively

A

`sp^(2), sp^(2), sp^(3)`

B

`sp^(2), sp^(3), sp^(3)`

C

`sp^(3), sp^(3), sp^(2)`

D

`sp^(3), sp^(2), sp^(2)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`CH_(3)` (methyl free radical) has planar structure with `sp^(2)` hybridisation of 'C' atom. The odd electron is present in unhybridised `2p_(z)` orbital.
`overset(o+)(CH_(3)) ` (methyl carbonium ion) has also trigonal planar structure `(sp^(2))`
`overset(Θ)(CH_(3))` (methyl carbanion ion) has tetrahedral structure (sp^(3))` are one of the hybrid orbital contains the lone pair of electrons.
