    In which of the compounds given below there is more than one kind of hybridisation (\[sp,\]\[s{{p}^{2}},\]\[s{{p}^{3}}\]) for carbon?
    I. \[C{{H}_{3}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{2}}C{{H}_{3}}\]
    II. \[C{{H}_{3}}CH=CH-C{{H}_{3}}\]
    III. \[C{{H}_{2}}=CH-CH=C{{H}_{2}}\]
    IV. \[H-C-C\equiv C-H\]

    A)  II and IV             

    B)  I and IV

    C)  II and III              

    D)  Only II

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

              I. \[\overset{s{{p}^{3}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}}}\,-\overset{s{{p}^{3}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,-\overset{s{{p}^{3}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,-\overset{s{{p}^{3}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}}}\,\]only \[s{{p}^{3}}\]hybridized carbon II. \[\overset{s{{p}^{3}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,-\overset{s{{p}^{2}}}{\mathop{CH}}\,=\overset{s{{p}^{2}}}{\mathop{CH}}\,-\overset{s{{p}^{3}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{3}}}}\,\]both \[s{{p}^{2}}\]and \[s{{p}^{3}}\]hybridised carbon. III. \[\overset{s{{p}^{2}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,=\overset{s{{p}^{2}}}{\mathop{CH}}\,-\overset{s{{p}^{2}}}{\mathop{CH}}\,=\overset{s{{p}^{2}}}{\mathop{C{{H}_{2}}}}\,\]only \[s{{p}^{2}}\]hybridized carbon. IV. \[H-\overset{sp}{\mathop{C}}\,\equiv \overset{sp}{\mathop{C}}\,-H\]only \[sp\text{-}\]hybridised carbon.
