Question

A molecule containing a central atom with sp hybridization has a(n) ________ electron geometry. A molecule containing a central atom with sp hybridization has a(n) ________ electron geometry. square planar trigonal pyramidal octahedral linear bent

Answer 1

Answer:

Linear electron geometry.

Explanation:

There is classification of the geometrical shapes of the molecule or electrons according to the hybridization status of the central atom. If the central atom is 'sp hybridized' then the molecular geometry should be linear. All the other options are for sp2 and sp3 hybridization.
