Homolytic fission of carbon-carbon bond ...

Homolytic fission of carbon-carbon bond of ethane produces an intermediate in which the carbon atom is in

A

`sp^(2)` hybridized state

B

`sp^(3)`hybridized state

C

`sp` hybridized state

D

`dsp^(2)` hybridized state

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`CH_(3)CH_(3)rarr 2CH_(3)`
Hybridization of `C` atom in methyl free radical is `sp^(2)`.
