Worked practice questions

Number of σ and π bonds in C₂H₄ (ethene):

  1. 1 σ + 1 π
  2. 2 σ + 2 π
  3. 4 σ + 1 π
  4. 5 σ + 1 π
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: D. 5 σ + 1 π

C₂H₄ has C=C (1 σ + 1 π) plus 4 C-H bonds (4 σ). **Total:** 5 σ bonds + 1 π bond. The π bond restricts rotation around C=C.

According to VSEPR theory, the shape of a molecule is determined by

  1. the colour of the element
  2. temperature
  3. repulsion between electron pairs around the central atom
  4. the atomic mass
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: C. repulsion between electron pairs around the central atom

VSEPR: electron pairs (bonding + lone) arrange to minimise repulsion, fixing the molecular geometry.

The hybridisation of carbon in methane (CH₄) is

  1. sp
  2. sp³
  3. sp³d
  4. sp²
Show answer and solution

Correct answer: B. sp³

Four sigma bonds, tetrahedral → sp³ hybridisation.
