The structure of CH2=C=CH2 is...

The structure of `CH_2=C=CH_2` is

A

linear

B

planar

C

non-planar

D

has several resonance structures

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B

The state of hybridisation of carbon atoms is `underset(sp^2)underset(|)overset(4)(CH_2)=underset(sp)underset(|)overset(2)C=underset(sp^2)underset(|)overset(3)(CH_2)` and hence it is planer.
