The charge forming electron pair in the carbonion `CH_(3)C -=C` exists in-

A

sp-orbital

B

2p-orbital

C

`sp^(3)`-orbital

D

`sp^(2)`-orbital

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
A
`CH_(3)C-=C^(-)`, triply bonded carbon atoms are sp-hybridised. Thus charge forming electron pair is in sp-orbital.
