    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 :

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