How can halohydrocarbons be classified on the basis of the type of hybridisation of carbon bouded to the halogen atom? Give example.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

On the basis of the type of hybridisation of carbon to which the halogen is attached, halohydrocarbons are of the following three types: (1). `C_(sp^3) - X (e.g., CH_(3)-CI)`,
(2). `C_(sp^2)-X` e.g., , (3). `C_(sp)-X (e.g., HC -=C CI)`.
