A straight chain hydrocarbon has the molecular formula C8H10{\mathrm{C}_8}{\mathrm{H}_{10}} . The hybridization for the carbon atoms from one end of the chain to the other are respectively sp3,  sp2,  sp2,  sp3,  sp2,  sp2,  sp  and  sps{p^3},\;s{p^2},\;s{p^2},\;s{p^3},\;s{p^2},\;s{p^2},\;sp\;{\kern 1pt} {\kern 1pt} {\kern 1pt} {\kern 1pt} \mathrm{and}{\kern 1pt} {\kern 1pt} {\kern 1pt} \;sp. The structural formula of the hydrocarbon would be :
View answer and explanation
Correct option: D
CH3−CH=CH−CH2−CH=CH−C  ≡CH\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{H}_3} - \mathrm{CH} = \mathrm{CH} - \mathrm{C}{\mathrm{H}_2} - \mathrm{CH} = \mathrm{CH} - \mathrm{C\;} \equiv \mathrm{CH}
Option D (CH3−CH=CH−CH2−CH=CH−C  ≡CH\mathrm{C}{\mathrm{H}_3} - \mathrm{CH} = \mathrm{CH} - \mathrm{C}{\mathrm{H}_2} - \mathrm{CH} = \mathrm{CH} - \mathrm{C\;} \equiv \mathrm{CH}) is correct because it matches the given hybridization pattern from one end of the chain to the other.
