MCQ
A $s{p^3}$ hybridized orbital contains
  • $\frac{1}{4}s - $character
  • B
    $\frac{1}{2}s - $character
  • C
    $\frac{2}{3}s - $character
  • D
    $\frac{3}{4}s - $character

Answer

Correct option: A.
$\frac{1}{4}s - $character
(a) In $s{p^3}$-hybridisation each $s{p^3}$ hybridised orbital has $1/4 \,s-$character.
