Question
Don't forget to show formal charges where necessary 1) Using the principles from orbital hybridization, explain why the C-H stretch when a carbon is sp-hybridized is more intense (lower %T) than the C-H stretch when a carbon is sp³-hybridized.

Expert Solution
Step 1

The stretching frequency of various functional groups depends on the force constant(k) and reduced mass(m) as

ν=12πkμ

ν=vibrational frequencyk=force constantμ=reduced mass

From the above equation, the vibrational frequency is directly proportional to force constant(k) which is directly proportional to bond strength.
