Answer options

  1. sp sp3
  2. sp2 sp
  3. sp2 sp2
  4. sp sp

Correct answer and explanation

Correct answer: sp2 sp

Explanation: ✅ Correct Answer: B) sp² sp 📚 Explanation: In organic chemistry, the hybridization of a carbon atom depends on its bonding. A carbon with a double bond (C2) is sp2 hybridized, while a carbon with a triple bond (C3) is sp hybridized. This determines the molecular geometry and bond angles of the molecule.
