Question

Isoniazid(below)is an antibacterial agent that is very useful against many common strains of tuberculosis. (a) How many bonds are in the molecule? (b) What is the hybridization of each C and N atom?

Expert Solution

Step 1

Hybridization is defined as the concept of mixing two atomic orbitals with the same energy levels to give a degenerated new type of orbitals. This intermixing is based on quantum mechanics. The atomic orbitals of the same energy level can only take part in hybridization and both full filled and half-filled orbitals can also take part in this process, provided they have equal energy.

Step 2

Write the reaction.

Number of bonds = 21
