(a)
Interpretation:
The hybridization of each carbon atom in following structure should be determined.
Concept Introduction:
The process of the mixing of orbitals having similar symmetry and energy to results equal number of orbitals is known as hybridization.
The formed orbitals are known as hybrid orbitals.
Carbon belongs to group 4 of the periodic table and its
