- C \(sp^2d\)
- D \(sp^3\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(A) \(sp^2\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
All carbocations are \(sp^2\) hybridised and they have planar triangular structure. The value of the \(\mathrm{H}=3\) only. \(\mathrm{H}=\frac 12[\) Valence electron of the central atom \(+\) no of surrounding atomcation \(+\) anion]
