Q: What type of hybridization is present in the carbon atoms of alkenes?
Solution:
The carbon atoms in alkenes are sp2 hybridized due to the presence of a double bond.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what alkenes are. Alkenes are hydrocarbons that contain at least one double bond between carbon atoms.
Step 2: Identify the structure of carbon atoms. Each carbon atom has four valence electrons and can form four bonds.
Step 3: Recognize that in alkenes, one of the bonds between carbon atoms is a double bond.
Step 4: Know that hybridization is a way to describe how atomic orbitals mix to form new hybrid orbitals for bonding.
Step 5: For a double bond, one bond is a sigma bond and the other is a pi bond. The sigma bond involves sp2 hybridization.
Step 6: Conclude that since alkenes have a double bond, the carbon atoms involved in the double bond are sp2 hybridized.
