What is the percentage of s-character in an sp hybrid? O 25% 50% o 75% O 66%
marishachu [46]

Answer: 50%

Explanation:

The number of electron pairs are 2 for hybridization to be sp and the electronic geometry of the molecule will be linear.

1. percentage of s character in sp hybrid orbital =\frac{\text {number of s orbitals}}{\text {total number of orbitals}}=\frac{1}{2}\times 100=50\%

2. percentage of s character in sp^2 hybrid orbital =\frac{\text {number of s orbitals}}{\text {total number of orbitals}}=\frac{1}{3}\times 100=33.3\%

3. percentage of s character in sp^3 hybrid orbital =\frac{\text {number of s orbitals}}{\text {total number of orbitals}}=\frac{1}{4}\times 100=25\%

Thus percentage of s-character in an sp hybrid is 50%.
