Chemistry Question on Structural Representations Of Organic Compounds

The molecule that contains only sp2sp^2 hybrid carbon atoms is

A

isoprene

B

acrylonitrile

C

but-1-ene

D

1, 3-butadiene

Answer

1, 3-butadiene

Explanation

Solution

Double bonded carbon atoms are sp 2^{2} hybridised. The structures of the given compounds are as

(a)
undefinedundefinedundefinedundefined

isoprene

(b)

acrylonitrile

(c)

but-1-ene

(d)

1,3-butadiene

(e)

iso-butene

Thus, 1,31,3-butadiene contains only sp2sp^{2} hybridised carbon atoms.
