Question

Which of the following elements can not exhibit spd hybridisation state?
(a) C (b)P (c) Cl (d) B
O a &c
O a & d
Ob & c
Ob &d​

Answer 1

Answer:

a,d are correct answers

Explanation:

The number of valence electrons in  

′

C  

′

 is 4 and  

′

B  

′

 is 3. sp  

3

d hybridisation involves  

′

5  

′

 valence shell orbitals.

As C and B does not have d-orbital, they cannot show sp  

3

d hybridization.
