What is the Hybridization of the Carbon atoms in Acetylene sp HybridisationEach carbon is only joining to two other atoms rather than four (as in methane or ethane) or three (as in ethene). Here the carbon atoms hybridise their outer orbitals before for…

What is the Hybridization of the Carbon atoms in Ethylenesp2 HybridisationConsider ethene (ethylene, CH2 = CH2) molecule as the example. In the formation of CH2 = CH2 each carbon atom in its excited state undergoes sp2 hybridisation by intermixing one s…
