The percentage of p character of hybrid orbitals in graphite and diamond are respectively

A

33 and 25

B

50 and 75

C

67 and 75

D

33 and 75

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
Hybridisation in graphite = `sp^(2)`
`therefore %` p-character = `(2)/(3) xx100 = 67%`
Hybridisation in diamond = `sp^(3)`
`therefore %` p-character `= (3)/(4)xx100 = 75%` .
