Chapter 1.SE, Problem 36AP
Interpretation Introduction

a) Propane, CH3CH2CH3.

Interpretation:

The hybridization expected for each carbon atom in propane, CH3CH2CH3 is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Carbon uses hybridized orbitals for forming bonds with other atoms. A carbon in sp3 hybridized state can form four single bonds. A carbon in sp2 hybridized state can form a double bond and two single bonds. A carbon in sp hybridized state can form a triple bond and a single bond or two double bonds with its neighboring atoms.

Interpretation Introduction

b) 2- Methyl propene.

Interpretation:

The hybridization expected for each carbon atom in 2- methyl propene is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Carbon uses hybridized orbitals for forming bonds with other atoms. A carbon in sp3 hybridized state can form four single bonds. A carbon in sp2 hybridized state can form a double bond and two single bonds. A carbon in sp hybridized state can form a triple bond and a single bond or two double bonds with its neighboring atoms.

Interpretation Introduction

c) But-1-ene-3-yne.

Interpretation:

The hybridization expected for each carbon atom in but-1-ene-3-yne is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Carbon uses hybridized orbitals for forming bonds with other atoms. A carbon in sp3 hybridized state can form four single bonds. A carbon in sp2 hybridized state can form a double bond and two single bonds. A carbon in sp hybridized state can form a triple bond and a single bond or two double bonds with its neighboring atoms.

Interpretation Introduction

d) Acetic acid.

Interpretation:

The hybridization expected for each carbon atom in acetic acid is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Carbon uses hybridized orbitals for forming bonds with other atoms. A carbon in sp3 hybridized state can form four single bonds.
