is there any molecule with sp hybridization with one lone pair and one bond pair? if there please tell an example.

In sp hybridization, the s orbital overlaps with only one p orbital. Atoms that exhibit sp hybridization have sp orbitals that are linearly oriented; two sp orbitals will be at 180 degrees to each other.
Any central atom surrounded by just two regions of valence electron density in a molecule will exhibit sp hybridization. Some examples include the mercury atom in the linear HgCl2 molecule, the zinc atom in Zn(CH3)2, which contains a linear C–Zn–C arrangement, the carbon atoms in HCCH and CO2, and the Be atom in BeCl2.
