The correct Answer is:
To solve the question, we will analyze the assertion and reason provided regarding the hybridization of carbon atoms in the given molecules and their planarity. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Structures**: - The first structure is `F2C=C=CF2`. - The second structure is `F2B-C≡C-BF2`. 2. **Determine Hybridization of Carbon Atoms**: - For the first structure `F2C=C=CF2`: - The central carbon atoms are involved in a double bond (C=C). - Each carbon atom forms one sigma bond with the adjacent carbon and two pi bonds (one with each adjacent carbon). - Therefore, each carbon atom in this structure is **sp-hybridized** because it forms two pi bonds and one sigma bond. - For the second structure `F2B-C≡C-BF2`: - Each carbon atom is involved in a triple bond (C≡C). - In a triple bond, there is one sigma bond and two pi bonds. - Thus, both carbon atoms in this structure are also **sp-hybridized**. 3. **Planarity of the Molecules**: - A molecule is planar if all the atoms involved are in the same plane. - For sp-hybridized carbon atoms, the geometry is linear, which means they will lie in a straight line. - Therefore, both structures `F2C=C=CF2` and `F2B-C≡C-BF2` are indeed planar due to the linear arrangement of the sp-hybridized carbon atoms. 4. **Conclusion**: - The assertion states that the central carbon atom in `F2C=C=CF2` and both carbon atoms in `F2B-C≡C-BF2` are sp-hybridized. This is **true**. - The reason states that the molecules are planar. This is also **true** because sp-hybridization leads to a linear arrangement. - Therefore, both the assertion and reason are true. ### Final Answer: - The assertion is true, and the reason is also true.
