Question
Define hybridisation. Explain the structure of C2H2 with orbital diagram.
✓

Answer

Hybridisation is process of intermixing of atomic orbitals of slightly different energies which give rise to hybridised orbitals having exactly equal energy, identical shape and more stability.

In $\text{H}-\text{C}\equiv\text{C}-\text{H}$ each 'C' is 'sp' hybridised, therefore, it has linear shape.
