Question

Explain the type of hybridisation present in ethyne using suitable diagrams
​

Answer 1

Answer:

In the formation of C2H2, the carbon atom needs extra electrons to form 4 bonds with hydrogen and other carbon atoms. ... The 2s orbital in each carbon hybridizes with one of the 2p orbitals and forms two sp hybrid orbitals. Ethyne has a triple bond between the two carbon atoms.

Name of the Molecule: Acetylene or Ethyne

Bond Angle: 180o

Hybridization Type: sp

Explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

When we break down ethyne molecules it basically consists of 2 CH molecules.

Name of the Molecule ----->Acetylene or Ethyne

Molecular Formula---->C2H2

Hybridization Type---->sp

Bond Angle----->180 DEGREE

Geometry----> Linear

*In the formation of C2H2, the carbon atom needs extra electrons to form 4 bonds with hydrogen and other carbon atoms. As a result, one 2s2 pair is moved to the empty 2pz orbital.

*The 2s orbital in each carbon hybridizes with one of the 2p orbitals and forms two sp hybrid orbitals.

*Ethyne has a triple bond between the two carbon atoms.
