When 1,2-dibromoethane reacts with sodamide giving a product X. The hybridisation state of the carbons present in it respectively, are?
Understand the Problem
The question is asking about the hybridization states of carbon atoms in a product formed from the reaction of 1,2-dibromoethane with sodamide. We'll need to analyze the structure of the product X and determine the hybridization states of each carbon.
Answer
sp, sp
The hybridization states of the carbons in the product X are sp, sp.
Answer for screen readers
The hybridization states of the carbons in the product X are sp, sp.
More Information
1,2-dibromoethane reacted with sodamide leads to a dehydrohalogenation reaction, forming acetylene, where each carbon is sp hybridized.
Tips
A common mistake is misunderstanding the hybridization process and misidentifying the formed alkyne product.
