Question

n the hydrocarbon,
`overset(6)CH_(3)-overset(5)CH=overset(4)CH-overset(3)CH_(2)-overset(2)C-=overset(1)CH`
The state of hybridization of carbons 1, 3 and 5 are in the following sequence :
A. `sp, sp^(2),sp^(3)`
B. `sp^(3),sp^(2),sp`
C. `sp^(2),sp,sp^(3)`
D. `sp, sp^(3),sp^(2)`

Answer 1

Correct Answer - D
In the following hydrocarbon
`overset("6 ")underset(sp^(3))(CH_(3))-overset("5 ")underset(sp^(2))(CH)=overset("4 ")underset(sp^(2))(CH_(2))-overset("3 ")underset(sp^(3))(CH_(2))-overset(2)underset(sp)(C)-=overset("1 ")underset(sp)(CH)`
The state of hybridization of carbons 1, 3 and 5 are sp, `sp^(3)` and `sp^(2)` respectively.
