Decreasing order of size of various hybrid orbitals is –

A

sp>sp2>sp3sp > sp^{2} > sp^{3}

B

sp3>sp2>spsp^{3} > sp^{2} > sp

C

sp2>sp>sp3sp^{2} > sp > sp^{3}

D

sp>sp3>sp2sp > sp^{3} > sp^{2}

Answer

sp>sp3>sp2sp > sp^{3} > sp^{2}

Explanation

Solution

Here C1,C2,C5,&C6\overset{1}{C},\overset{2}{C},\overset{5}{C},\&\overset{6}{C}are sp2 hybridised

So total no. of carbon atoms having sp2 configuration is 4
