Which one of the following compounds has `sp^(2)` hybridization?

A

`CO_(2)`

B

`SO_(2)`

C

`N_(2)O`

D

CO

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Sulphur in `SO_(2)` is `sp^(2)` - hybridized.
Electron pair = 2 (`sigma` - bonds) + 1 (lone pair) = 3
Hybridisation `= sp^(2)`

Carbon in `CO_(2)` is sp-hybridised, N in `N_(2)O` is sp-hybridised, carbon in CO is sp-hybridised.
