why is the hybridization of methyl free radical sp2 and of trichloromethyl free radical sp3
Dear studentIn methyl free radical the hybridization is sp2 because it has 3 bond pairs and one unpaired electron which is very reactive so in hybridization it is not included and 3 bond pairs are present so one goes with s and other 2 with p. In trichloro methyl radical hybridization is sp3 because F is present which is very electronegative element so it attracts an unpaired electron towards itself and add it in hybridization due to which hybridization get shift from sp2 to sp3.
