Question
Chapter 1.SE, Problem 37AP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The shape of benzene and the hybridization expected for each carbon in it is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Carbon uses hybridized orbitals for forming bonds with other atoms. A carbon in sp3 hybridized state can form four single bonds. A carbon in sp2 hybridized state can form a double bond and two single bonds. A carbon in sp hybridized state can form a triple bond and a single bond or two double bonds with its neighboring atoms.
