(a)
Interpretation:
The hybridization and bond angles of carbon is bonded via four single bonds to adjacent atoms should be determined.
Concept introduction:
Carbon
Carbon has tetra valency. It is bonded with four bonds to adjacent atoms or molecules.
Single covalent bond - one pair of each electrons are shared.
Double covalent bond – two pair of electrons are shared.
Triple covalent bond – Three pairs of electron are shared.
Hybridization: The phenomenon of formation new orbitals by the mixing of atomic orbital’s with equal energy.
Sp hybridization: Mixing of one –‘s’ orbital and one ‘p’ orbital. And form new hybrid orbital. Angle is
