Question 1

When a carbon atom has sp3 hybridization, it has:

◦ four π bonds.
◦ three π bonds and one σ bond.
◦ two π bonds and two σ bonds.
◦ one π bond and three σ bonds.
◦ four σ bonds.

Question 2

When comparing Be2 and H2:
 
I.
Be2 is more stable because it contains both bonding and antibonding valence electrons.
 
II.
H2 has a higher bond order than Be2.
 
III.
H2 is more stable because it only contains σ1s electrons.
 
IV.
H2 is more stable because it is diamagnetic, whereas Be2 is paramagnetic.
 


◦ I, II
◦ III only
