Find the type of hybridization of each c...

Find the type of hybridization of each carbon in the following molecules.
(i) `CH_(3)F` , (ii) `CH_(3)CHO`
(iii) `CH_(3)CH_(2)CN` , (iv) `CH_(3)CONH_(2)`
(v) `CH_(3)C-=C CH_(3)` , (vi) `CH_(3)CH-=CH_(2)`
Strategy: Carbon atom forming four sigma bonds but no pi bond is always `sp^(3)` htbridized, carbon atom forming three sigma bonds and one pi bond is always `sp^(2)` hybridized, and carbon atom forming two sigma bonds and two pi bonds is always `sp` hybridized.
