How hybridization of ‘C’ atom changes when ethene is hydrogenated? |
|
Answer» that Ethane is hybridized. Ethene is hybridized. ETHYNE is hybridized. Number of hybrid ORBITALS formed is equal to the number of combining orbitals Carbon MAKES four bonds in ethane so it requires 4 hybrid orbitals. One s-orbital and 3 p-orbitals CONSTITUTES for bonding to form sp3 hybridization. In case ethene, carbon makes three bonds so it requires 3 orbitals which constitutes to form sp2 hybridization. Similarly, in case of ethyne they form sp hybridized orbitals |
