    The percentage s-character of the hybrid orbitals in methane, ethene and ethyne are respectively:

    A)  25, 50, 75    

    B)  25, 33, 50

    C)  10, 20, 40    

    D)  50, 75, 100

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

     Hybridisation in methane \[=sp\] \[%s=\frac{1\times 100}{4}=25%\] Hybridisation in ethene \[=s{{p}^{2}}\] \[%s=\frac{1\times 100}{3}=33.33%=33%\] Hybridisation in ethyne \[=sp\] \[%s=\frac{1\times 100}{2}=50%\]
