Question

What types of orbital overlap occur in cumulene? check all that apply. check all that apply. p/p overlap sp/sp2 overlap s/sp overlap sp/sp overlap s/s overlap sp2/sp2 overlap s/sp2 overlap?

Answer 1

Cumulene is an alkene hydrocarbon that has two or three double bonds. It is also known as allene. The simplest cumulene is butatriene. It is a rigid hydrocarbon due to the presence of double bonds.

Answer: The orbital that overlap are p/p overlap, s/sp2 overlap, sp/sp2 overlap and sp/sp orbital.

Answer 2

sp/sp overlap p/p overlap sp/sp^2 overlap
