Question -The correct order regarding the electronegativity of hybrid orbitals of carbon is?
Options:
A .  sp < sp2 < sp3
B .  sp < sp2 > sp3
C .  sp > sp2 > sp3
D .  sp > sp2 < sp3
Answer: Option C : C With the increase in % of s-character in hybrid orbitals the electronegativity of the hybrid orbitals increases. sp - 50% s character, sp2- 33.3 % s character sp3 - 25% s character.
