Chapter 9, Problem 9.77QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The molecular geometry and hybridization around each carbon atom in benzene, cyclobutane and cyclobutene is to be predicted.

Concept introduction: Hybridization is the process of mixing atomic orbitals into hybrid orbitals to identify the structure of the compound. The process of hybridization is favorable because the energy of hybridized orbital is lower than their separated orbitals. The steric number is calculated by the formula,

SN=N+L

To determine: The molecular geometry and hybridization around each carbon atom in benzene, cyclobutane and cyclobutene.
