Explanation:
When carbon atom tends to form single bonds then its hybridization is
, when carbon atom tends to form double bond then its hybridization is
and when a carbon atom is attached to a triple bond or with two double bonds then its hydridization is sp.
For example, in HCN molecule there is a triple existing between the carbon and nitrogen atom.
So, hybridization of carbon in this molecules is sp. Moreover, nitrogen atom is also attached via triple bond and it also has a lone pair of electrons. Hence, the hybridization of nitrogen atom is also sp.
Thus, we can conclude that s and p type of orbitals overlap to form the sigma bond between C and N in H−C≡N:
Answer: The scientific method. When conducting research, scientists use the scientific method to collect measurable, empirical evidence in an experiment related to a hypothesis (often in the form of an if/then statement), the results aiming to support or contradict a theory.
Explanation:
The specific heat of aluminum is 0.902 J/gC. E=m*cp*delta T, or
125*0.902*(95.5-19)= 8630 J
