<h3>Explanation</h3>
The hybridization of a carbon atom depends on the number of electron domains that it has.
Each chemical bond counts as one single electron domain. This is the case for all chemical bonds: single, double, or triple. Each lone pair also counts as one electron domain. However, lone pairs are seldom seen on carbon atoms.
Each carbon atom has four valence electrons. It can form up to four chemical bonds. As a result, a carbon atom can have up to four electron domains. It has a minimum of two electron domains, with either two double bonds or one single bond and one triple bond.
- A carbon atom with four electron domains is sp³ hybridized;
- A carbon atom with three electron domains is sp² hybridized;
- A carbon atom with two electron domains is sp hybridized.
Starting from the left end (H₂C=CH-) of the molecule:
- The first carbon has three electron domains: two C-H single bonds and one C=C double bond; It is sp² hybridized.
- The second carbon has three electron domains: one C-H single bond, one C-C single bond, and one C=C double bond; it is sp² hybridized.
- The third carbon has three electron domains: two C-C single bonds and one C=O double bond; it is sp² hybridized.
- The fourth carbon has two electron domains: one C-C single bond and one C≡C triple bond; it is sp hybridized.
- The fifth carbon has two electron domains: one C-H single bond and one C≡C triple bond; it is sp hybridized.
Chemical change happens when a substance combines with
another substance to form a new substance. It produces chemical reactions and
generally is not reversible except by further chemical reactions. Heat is sometimes
produced in some reactions. When chemical reactions occur, the atoms are
rearranged and an energy change happens along with it as new products are
generations. At a molecular level, chemical changes involves the making or
breaking of bonds between atoms. Some examples of chemical change are iron
rusting (iron oxide forms) and bread rising (yeast converts carbohydrates into
carbon dioxide gas).

<h3>
Merits of modern periodic table:</h3>
- The wrong position of some elements like argon, potassium, cobalt and nickel due to atomic weights have been solved by arranging the elements in the order of increasing atomic number without changing their own places.
- The isotopes of some element have the same atomic numbers. Therefore, they find the same position in periodic table.
- It separates metals from non-metals.
- The groups of the table are divided into sub groups A and B due to their dissimilar properties which make the study of elements specific and easier.
- The representative and transition elements have been separated.
