Which one of the following is a correct set?
- A Diamond, \(s p^2\)
- B Graphite, \(s p^3\)
- C Diamond, \(s p\)
- D Graphite, \(s p^2\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(D) Graphite, \(s p^2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Graphite has a two dimensional sheet like structure. The adjacent layers of sheet are held together by weak van der Waals' forces. In graphite each carbon atom is present in \(s p^2\) hybridised state.

- Decomposition of ethane, \(\frac{d\left[\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_6\right]}{d t}=k\left[\mathrm{C}_2 \mathrm{H}_6\right]\) proceeds through a complex mechanism, which includes 5 steps. The overall rate constant \((k)\) can be expressed as \(k=\frac{k_1 k_2 k_3}{k_2 k_5}\). where \(k_1, k_2, k_3, k_4, k_5\) are the rate constant of the 5 steps.
