The correct order regarding the electronegativity of hybrid orbitals of carbon is ?

A

`sp lt sp^(3) lt sp^(2)`

B

`sp lt sp^(2) lt sp^(3)`

C

`sp^(2) gt sp lt sp^(3)`

D

`sp gt sp^(2) gt sp^(3)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
the electronegativity of the hybrid orbitals decreases as the percentage of s-character decreases. Hence, the correct order is `sp gt sp^(2) gt sp^(3)`.
