Answer:
Explanation:
There are 7 covalent bonds in ethane.
Ethane molecule consists of two carbon atoms and six H-atoms (C2H6).
Nature of Hybridization:
In ethane each C-atom is Sp3
-hybridized containing four Sp3
-hybrid orbitals. One s-orbital and three
p-orbitals (px, py, pz) undergo Sp3
-hybridization to produce four Sp3
-hybrid orbitals for each carbon atom.
Sigma bond formation:
Out of four Sp3
-hybrid orbitals one Sp3
-hybrid orbital of one C-atom overlaps with one s-orbital of
H-atom to produce three sigma bond and the last overlaps with one Sp3
-orbital of other C-atom to produce a sigma bond between two C-atoms.
