What is the type of hybridisation of eachcarbon in the following compounds?(a) CH,Cl, (b) (CH3)2CO, (c) CH,CN,(d) HCONH2, (e) CH3 CH-CHCN

Answer»

Hybridisation= number of sigma bonds + lone pair.CH3Cl= 3 sigma bonds betweenC& H and 1 betweenCand Cl There is no lone pair ascarbonhas 4 valence electrons and all of them have formed a bond (3 with hydrogen and 1 with Cl). Now,hybridisation= (3+1) + 0= 4 = sp3 (1 s & 3 p).In CH3CN, first carbon is sp3hybridised (4σbonds).second carbon is sphybridised (2πbonds and 1σbond).
