The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided, we need to understand the structure and hybridization of carbanions, particularly simple carbanions and allyl carbanions. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Carbanions**: - Carbanions are negatively charged carbon species that have an extra electron. The geometry of carbanions is influenced by the hybridization of the carbon atom. 2. **Simple Carbanions**: - Simple carbanions, such as methyl carbanion (CH₃⁻), have a tetrahedral geometry due to `sp³` hybridization. However, they can exhibit pyramidal geometry due to the presence of lone pairs that repel the bonding pairs of electrons. 3. **Allyl Carbanion Structure**: - The allyl carbanion (C₃H₅⁻) consists of a carbon atom with a negative charge that is adjacent to a double bond. The structure can be represented as H₂C=CH-CH₂⁻. 4. **Hybridization of Allyl Carbanion**: - In the allyl carbanion, the carbon atom bearing the negative charge is `sp²` hybridized. This means it has a planar structure with bond angles of approximately 120 degrees. 5. **Planarity of Allyl Carbanion**: - The presence of `sp²` hybridization in the allyl carbanion allows for a planar arrangement of the atoms. The double bond and the negative charge contribute to this planarity. 6. **Conclusion**: - Statement-1 is true: Simple carbanions are generally pyramidal, while the allyl carbanion is planar. - Statement-2 is also true: All carbon atoms in the allyl carbanion are indeed `sp²` hybridized. ### Final Assessment: Both statements are correct. Therefore, the conclusion is that both Statement-1 and Statement-2 are true.
