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.
