Answer:
The correct answer is D sp2 and sp3
Explanation:
Acetic acid is a weak acid containg 2 carbon atoms.the first carbon is joined to 3 hydrogen atoms by 3 covalent bonds and to the second carbo atom by one covalent bond.Therefore the first carbon of CH3COOH is sp3 hybridized.
Whereas the second carbon is joined to the first carbon by a covalent bond,the second carbon form a double bond with oxygen and thesecond carbon forms a covalent bond with the oxygen atom of -OH group of COOH moiety.Therefore the second carbon is sp2 hybridized.
The type of hybridization that the carbon atoms of acetic acid (CH3COOH) exhibit include sp² and sp³.
Acetic acid is also referred to as ethanoic acid. It is a colorless liquid and an important chemical reagent used in the production of fabrics, synthetic fibers, and photographic film.
It has 2 carbon atoms. It should be noted that the first carbon is joined to 3 hydrogen atoms by 3 covalent bonds and to the second carbon atom by one covalent bond.
The second carbon is joined to the first carbon by a covalent bond and the second carbon forms a double bond with oxygen. Therefore, the types of hybridization exhibited for the carbon atoms are sp² and sp³.
