Question

Mention the hybridized state of carbonil carbon atom

Answer 1

This is the structure of carbonyl carbon where the carbon is attached with one double bond with oxygen and two single bonds.
If a carbon is attached with all single bonds it is sp³ hybridized.
If a carbon is attached with one double bond it is sp² hybridized.
If a carbon is attached with one triple bond or two double bonds it is sp hybridized.
Hence, the carbonyl carbon is sp² hybridized.
