Chapter 1: Q56P (page 2)

What is the hybridisation of each of the carbon and oxygen atoms in vitamin c?

Short Answer

Expert verified

In case of single bondthat is when the atom makes single bonds only then the hybridisation is.

In case of double bondthat is when the atom makes double bond with other atoms then its hybridisation is.

In case of triple bondthat is when the atom makes triple bond with other atoms then its hybridisation is.

Step by step solution

01

How to decide on hybridisation.

In case of single bondthat is when the atom makes single bonds only then the hybridisation is.

In case of double bondthat is when the atom makes double bond with other atoms then its hybridisation is.

In case of triple bondthat is when the atom makes triple bond with other atoms then its hybridisation is.
