Chemistry - Carbonyl compounds Question with Solution | TestHub

In the carbonyl group, carbon atom is in a state of$\text{s}{\text{p}}^2$hybridisation. One$\text{s}{\text{p}}^2$hybrid orbital overlap with a unhydridised$\text{p}$-orbital of oxygen to form$\mathrm{\text{C}}-\mathrm{\text{O}}$$\text{σ}$-bonds. The remaining two$\text{s}{\text{p}}^2$orbitals of carbon form$\text{σ}$-bonds with$\text{s}$-orbitals of hydrogen or$\text{s}{\text{p}}^3$-orbitals of carbon of the alkyl groups. The$\mathrm{\text{C}}-\mathrm{\text{O}}$$\text{π}$-bond is formed by the sideways overlap of$\text{p}$-orbitals of carbon and oxygen. Thus, the three$\text{σ}$-bonds of carbonyl carbon lie in one plane and are$120°$aprat
