Question

How many types of hybrid orbitals do we use to describe each
molecule?
b. C2H5NO (four C ¬ H bonds and one O ¬H bond)

Accepted Answer

Hi everyone here, we have a question asking us to determine the total number of hybrid orbital's in acetone I trial. So first let's draw our LewiS structure. We have a central carbon Single bonded to three hydrogen single bonded to a carbon, Which is triple bonded to a nitrogen with one lone pair. So our central carbon has a linear electron geometry And two sp hybrid orbital's. Our CH three Group as tetra. He'd rel electron geometry And has four sp 3 hybrid total rebuttals. Our nitrogen has linear electron geometry, It has two sp hybrid orbital's. So there are a total of eight hybrid orbital's and that is our final answer. Thank you for watching. Bye.
