The hybridization of oxygen atom in H2O2...

The hybridization of oxygen atom in `H_2O_2` is

A

`sp^3d`

B

`sp`

C

`sp^2`

D

`sp^3`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
Lewis structure of `H_2O` is
`H-underset(..)overset(..)O-underset(..)overset(..)O-H`
`SN` of each O atom is `2+2=4`. Thus, the hybridization of each O atom in `H_2O` is `sp^3`.
