Which of the following molecules possess `sp,sp^2` and `sp^3` hybridized C atoms?

A

`sp^(3) lt sp^(2) lt sp`

B

`sp lt sp^(2) lt sp^(3)`

C

`sp^(2) lt sp lt sp^(3)`

D

`sp^(2) lt sp^(3) lt sp`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
The percentage of s- character is `sp^(3) , sp^(2)`and sp is 25%, 33% and 50% respectively . Order of size of orbitals is `sp lt sp^(2) sp^(3)`.
