Question

explain the hybridisation of carbon

Answer 1

The third possible arrangement for carbon is sp hybridization which occurs when carbon is bound to two other atoms (two double bonds or one single + one triple bond). This hybridization results in a linear arrangement with an angle of 180° between bonds.

Answer 2

When carbon atom form four bond then the hybridization is sp3(with no lone pair )and the shape is tetrahedral formed when it form triple bond (double and a single bond)then the hybridization is sp2 with trigonal shape and angle formed is 120degree
