Chapter 3, Problem 3.11P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The structure of a molecule with the formula C5H8 that has two sp-hybridized atoms is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Hybridization of an atom in a molecule or ion is determined by the number of electron groups in its valence shell. The number of electron groups and the number of hybrid orbitals is the same.

An electron group is a lone pair or a bond. Single bond, double bond, and triple bond all are considered as a single electron group.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The structure of a molecule with the formula C5H8 that has four sp2-hybridized atoms is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

Hybridization of an atom in a molecule or ion is determined by the number of electron groups in its valence shell. The number of electron groups and the number of hybrid orbitals is the same.

An electron group is a lone pair or a bond. Single bond, double bond, and triple bond all are considered as a single electron group.
