Q: Which of the following species has sp2 hybridization?
Solution:
C2H4 (ethylene) has a carbon-carbon double bond, and each carbon is sp2 hybridized.
Steps: 6
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what sp2 hybridization means. It involves one s orbital and two p orbitals mixing to form three equivalent sp2 hybrid orbitals.
Step 2: Identify the species in question, which is C2H4 (ethylene).
Step 3: Look at the structure of C2H4. It has a carbon-carbon double bond.
Step 4: Each carbon atom in C2H4 forms three sigma bonds: two with hydrogen atoms and one with the other carbon atom.
Step 5: The presence of a double bond indicates that each carbon atom uses sp2 hybridization to form these bonds.
Step 6: Conclude that since both carbon atoms in C2H4 are sp2 hybridized, the answer to the question is that C2H4 has sp2 hybridization.
