`(a)H_(3)C-CH_(3)" "(b)H_(3)C-CH=CH_(3)" "(c )CH_(3)-CHO" "(d)CH_(3)COOH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

`(a) underset((sp^(3)))(H_(3)C)-underset((sp^(3)))(CH_(3))" "(b)underset((sp^(3)))(H_(3)C)-underset((sp^(2)))(CH)=underset((sp^(3)))(CH_(2))" "(c )underset((sp^(3)))(CH)-underset((sp^(2)))overset(O)overset(||)C-O`
(d) `underset((sp^(3)))(CH_(3))-underset((sp^(2)))overset(O)overset(||)C-OH`
