Subjective Type

What is the hybridization of each carbon in $$H_2C=C=CH_2$$?

Solution

The given structure is of $$C_3H_4$$ in which all three carbon atoms are linked to each other by double bonds. Carbons are marked as C1. C2 and C3. C1 and C3 are $$sp^2$$ hybridized because of having $$3\sigma$$ and $$1\pi$$ bonds. C2 has $$2\sigma$$ bonds and $$2\pi$$ bonds it is $$sp$$ hybridized.

$$H_2\overset{C1}C=\overset{C2}C=\overset{C3}CH_2$$
