1.	The percentage of p-character of the hybrid orbitals in graphite and diamond are respectively
Answer» 33 and 25 50 and 75 67 and 75 33 and 75 Solution :Hybridisation in graphite = `sp^(2)` `therefore %` p-character = `(2)/(3) XX100 = 67%` Hybridisation in diamond = `sp^(3)` `therefore %` p-character `= (3)/(4)xx100 = 75%` .
