The percentage of p character of hybrid orbitals in graphite and diamond are respectively

A

33 and 25

B

50 and 75

C

67 and 75

D

33 and 75

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Hybridization in graphite `sp^2`
% sp character = 2/3 x 100=67 %
Hybridization in diamond =`sp^3`
% p character =`3/4 xx 100=75%`
