Vedclass · Answer

(B) The percentage of $p$-character in a hybrid orbital is determined by its hybridization state.In $sp$ hybridization,there is $50 \%$ $s$-character and $50 \%$ $p$-character.In $sp^2$ hybridization,there is $33.33 \%$ $s$-character and $66.67 \%$ $p$-character.In $sp^3$ hybridization,there is $25 \%$ $s$-character and $75 \%$ $p$-character.Acetylene $(C_2H_2)$ has $sp$ hybridized carbon atoms,which corresponds to $50 \%$ $p$-character.

Which of the following molecules contains $50 \%$ $p$-character in the hybrid orbitals of the $C$ atom?
