Which of the following orbital overlaps is involved in the formation of the carbon-carbon signle bond in the molecule `HC -= C - CH = CH_(2)` ?A. (1) `sp^(3) - sp^(3)`B. (2) `sp^(2) - sp^(3)`C. (3) `sp - sp^(2)`D. (4) `sp^(3) - sp`

Answer» Correct Answer - C
`C` formind the triple bond is `sp` hybridized while `C` forming the double bond is `sp^(2)` hybridized:
`HC-=overset(sp)(C)-overset(sp^(2))(C)=CH_(2)`
