What is the hybridization of carbon in nco-?

First let us see what kind of bonds are formed in the compound. By drawing the structure, we see that the kind of bonds are:

N =- triple bond -= C – O

So there is only single bond between C and O therefore the hybridization of C is sp.

Answer : The hybridization of carbon in is, hybridized.

Explanation :

As we know that when a carbon attached to the four single sigma bonds then the hybridization will be, .

When a carbon attached to the three single sigma bonds and one- bond that means a carbon bonded to another atom by the double bond then the hybridization will be, .

When a carbon attached to the two single sigma bonds and two- bonds that means a carbon bonded to another atom by the triple bond then the hybridization will be, .

As per question, the given molecule is, . In this molecule, a triple bond is present between the nitrogen and carbon atom and a single bond is present between the carbon and oxygen atom. That means, a carbon bonded to another atom by the triple bond then the hybridization will be, .

Hence, the hybridization of carbon in is, hybridized.

what are the óptions. pléase list them

i would say b

explanation:

but i think i would need more information than that
