Identify the type of hybridisation present in c-atoms of diamond. |
|
Answer» Solution :The electronic configuration of CARBON is `1s^(2)2s^(2)2P^(2)` (ie) the valence electrons spread in s and p orbitals. In ORDER to create B COVALENT bonds in diamond, one s- orbital mixes with three p - orbitals to form `sp^(3)` hybridisation . |
