Chemistry Question on Organic Chemistry- Some Basic Principles and Techniques

What are the hybridization and shapes of the following molecules? (i) CH3FCH_{3} F (ii) HC≡NHC \equiv N

A

(i)sp2(i) sp^{2}, trigonal planar ; (ii)sp3(ii) sp^{3}, tetrahedral

B

(i)sp3(i) sp^{3}, tetrahedral ; (ii)sp(ii) sp, linear

C

(i)sp(i) sp, linear ; (ii)sp2(ii) sp^{2}, trigonal planar

D

(i)sp2(i) sp^{2}, trigonal planar, (ii)sp2(ii) sp^{2}, trigonal planar

Answer

(i)sp3(i) sp^{3}, tetrahedral ; (ii)sp(ii) sp, linear

Explanation

Solution

(i)CH3F−sp3(i) CH_{3}F-sp^{3} hybridised carbon, tetrahedral shape (ii)HC≡N−sp(ii) HC \equiv N-sp hybridised carbon, linear shape.
