State any two proper conditions of hybridization. What is the mode of hybridization of C in C2H2?
1 Answer
The necessary conditions for hybridization are as follows:
- The orbitals taking part in hybridization must have only a small difference in enthalpies.
- The orbitals undergoing hybridization generally belong to the valance of the atom.
The mode of hybridization of C in C2H2 is sp-hybridization.
