Question

Which of following can have vacant porbital?
  1. CH3
  2. Both (B) and (C)
  3. CH4
  4. CH3

A
CH3
B
CH4
C
Both (B) and (C)
D
CH3
Solution
Verified by Toppr

The correct option is A CH3
Alkyl free radicals are either planar or pyramidal in structure, they have sp2 hybridisation with impaired e located primarily in porbital.
In CH3, it has sp2 hybridisation with two e on each and one empty porbital.
In CH4, every porbital is involved in hybridisation making it sp3.
