Chapter 1, Problem 55PP

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To identify the expected hybridization state and geometry of the carbon atom in compounds.

Concept introduction:

The atomic orbitals mix together to form a hybrid orbital which is suitable for forming bonds between the atoms to form a compound.  This mixing of hybrid orbitals is known as hybridization.  The hybridization determines the geometry of the particular atom in the compound.  Shortly to say

sp3hybridized =tetrahedral

trigonal pyramidal(if one lone pair of electron is present)

bent geometry (if two lone pair of electrons are present)

sp2hybridized =trigonal planar

sp hybridized =linear

To determine: The hybridization and geometry of the carbon atoms
