The correct Answer is:
To determine which compound has all carbon atoms that are `sp²` hybridized, we will analyze each option provided in the question. ### Step 1: Analyze Option 1 - CH₂=CH-CH₂ - The structure can be represented as: ``` H H \ / C || C / \ H C / \ H H ``` - In this compound, the first carbon (C1) is bonded to two hydrogens and one carbon with a double bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - The second carbon (C2) is bonded to one carbon with a double bond and another carbon with a single bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - The third carbon (C3) is bonded to two hydrogens and one carbon with a double bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - However, the middle carbon (C2) is involved in two pi bonds (due to the double bonds), which means it is `sp` hybridized. - **Conclusion**: Not all carbon atoms are `sp²` hybridized in this compound. ### Step 2: Analyze Option 2 - 1,3-Butadiene - The structure can be represented as: ``` H H \ / C || C / \ H C || C / \ H H ``` - In 1,3-butadiene, the first carbon (C1) is bonded to two hydrogens and one carbon with a double bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - The second carbon (C2) is bonded to one carbon with a double bond and another carbon with a single bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - The third carbon (C3) is also bonded to one carbon with a double bond and another carbon with a single bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - The fourth carbon (C4) is bonded to two hydrogens and one carbon with a double bond, making it `sp²` hybridized. - **Conclusion**: All carbon atoms in 1,3-butadiene are `sp²` hybridized. ### Step 3: Analyze Option 3 - CH≡C-CH≡CH - The structure can be represented as: ``` H H \ / C || C / \ H C / \ H C ``` - The first carbon (C1) is involved in a triple bond, making it `sp` hybridized. - The second carbon (C2) is also involved in a triple bond, making it `sp` hybridized. - The third carbon (C3) is involved in a triple bond, making it `sp` hybridized. - The fourth carbon (C4) is also involved in a triple bond, making it `sp` hybridized. - **Conclusion**: Not all carbon atoms are `sp²` hybridized in this compound. ### Step 4: Analyze Option 4 - Cyclohexane - The structure can be represented as: ``` H H / \ C C / \ H H | | C C \ / H H ``` - In cyclohexane, all carbon atoms are bonded to two hydrogens and two other carbons with single bonds, making them `sp³` hybridized. - **Conclusion**: Not all carbon atoms are `sp²` hybridized in this compound. ### Final Conclusion The only compound where all carbon atoms are `sp²` hybridized is **1,3-butadiene**. ### Answer: Option B - 1,3-butadiene ---
