Questions and Answers

Which of the following statements is true about the sp hybrid orbital?

  • It is less electronegative than the sp2 hybrid orbital.
  • It forms shorter and stronger bonds than the sp3 hybrid orbital. (correct)
  • It contains more p character than the sp3 hybrid orbital.
  • It forms longer and weaker bonds than the sp3 hybrid orbital.
  • How does the change in hybridisation affect the electronegativity of carbon?

  • The electronegativity of carbon decreases with an increase in s character of the hybrid orbitals.
  • The greater the p character of the hybrid orbitals, the greater is the electronegativity.
  • The electronegativity of carbon is not affected by the change in hybridisation.
  • The greater the s character of the hybrid orbitals, the greater is the electronegativity. (correct)
  • Which of the following molecules is explained in terms of sp hybridisation of carbon atoms?

  • None of the above
