Hybridisation of boron in diborane is
- A \(s p\)
- B \(s p^2\)
- C \(s p^3\)
- D \(s p^3 d\)
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) \(s p^3\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
Boron atom in diborane is known to be \(s p^3\) hybridised because it has four hybrid-orbitals. Three of these has one electron each and one is an empty orbital. The two electrons of hybrid orbitals in each of boron atom form two bonds with \(1 s\) of hydrogen atoms. The two…
