    What is the type of hybridisation found in methane?

    A) \[s{{p}^{3}}\]

    B) \[s{{p}^{2}}\]

    C)  \[sp\]

    D)  None of these

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     \[H\overset{\sigma }{\mathop{-}}\,\underset{H}{\overset{H}{\mathop{\underset{|\sigma }{\overset{|\sigma }{\mathop{C}}}\,}}}\,\overset{\sigma }{\mathop{-}}\,H\] Here number of sigma bonds\[~=4\] therefore, type of hybridisation \[=s{{p}^{3}}\]
