Use conventional local hybrid labels based on σ-domain counts; an asterisk marks the atom being compared. Do NOT count the number of π bonds as extra domains. Which pairs give the SAME hybrid label at both marked atoms?

Options:(select one or more)

Answer:
A, C
Solution:

A has two σ directions on each carbon, hence sp despite different π frameworks. In B ammonium nitrogen is sp³ whereas the methyl cation carbon is sp². C compares two tetrahedral four-σ centres, both sp³. D contrasts trigonal-planar SO₃(sp²) with pyramidal sulfite having a lone pair(sp³). Charge, multiple-bond count and atom identity must be separated from the local domain count.
