Which hybrid orbitals are used by carbon...

Which hybrid orbitals are used by carbon atoms in the following molecules?
` CH_(3)–CH_(3)`, (b) `CH_(3)–CH=CH_(2)`, (c) `CH_(3)-CH_(2)-OH`, (d) `CH_(3)-CHO` (e) `CH_(3)COOH`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

a.`underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(H_(3)C)-underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(CH_(3))`(Around single bond, there is `sp^(3)`
b. `underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(H_(3)C)-underset(sp^(2))underset(uarr)(CH)=underset(sp^(2))underset(uarr)((CH)_(2))`(Around double bond there is `sp^(2)`hybridisation)
c.`underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(H_(3)C)-underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(CH_(2))-underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)underset(..)(ddotO)-H`
d. ` underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(H_(3)C)-underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(CH)=underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)underset(..)(ddotO : )`
e. `underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(H_(3)C)-underset(sp^(3))underset(uarr)(overset(ddotO:larrsp^(2) )(overset(||)(C ))-underset(sp^3)underset(uarr)underset(..)(ddotO)-H`
