Question

A. What is the hybridization of the central atom in CS,? Hybridization What are the approximate bond angles in this substance? Bond angles = B. What is the hybridization of the central atom in GeH? Hybridization = What are the approximate bond angles in this substance? Bond angles =

Answer 1

A. For CS₂, hybridization = sp²​​​​​​ and bond angle = 180°

B. For GeH₄, hybridization = sp³and bond angle = 109.5°

CS2 Structene : S= =S Shape = Linear Lone pair & regina bond at c = 0+2=2 So, hybridization is [sp2 ] Bond angle = 180° for liner, sp2 the bond angle = 180° - B. Gelta Structure H / HT H H Shape = Tetrahedral Segina bond & lone pain = 4+0=4 So, hybridization = [sp3 Bond angle = 109.59) for tetrahedral structure, bond angle = 109.5°
