Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(B) \(\begin{array}{ccc}\mathrm{C}_1 & \mathrm{C}_2 & \mathrm{C}_3 \ s p & s p^2 & s p\end{array}\)

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Among hydrocarbon bonds, the carbon atoms, which do not contain any pi \((\pi)\) bond show \(s p\) hybridisation. The carbon atoms, that contain one pi \((\pi)\) bond show \(s p^2\) and which contain two pi \((\pi)\) bonds show \(s p\)-hybridisation, because pi \((\pi)\) bonds…
