For the organic structure shown, write the hybridization for each carbon atom (i.e. sp3, sp?, sp) starting with the carbon on the left. State the total number of o and A bonds (don't forget the hydrogens). Add the bond angles that exist within the carbon framework (no need to repeat bond angles multiple times). Finally state the shape (i.e. octahedral) that each carbon atom uses for its bonding. Note that in all cases, base electron shape and actual shape are the same, therefore one shape name per atom will do.
