Hybridization State of Carbon in Butane

Easy Organic Chemistry Structure And Bonding

In organic chemistry, the type of bonding in molecules significantly influences their properties and reactivity. Consider the molecule butane (C4H10), which is an alkane consisting solely of carbon and hydrogen atoms. Understanding the hybridization state of the carbon atoms in butane is crucial for predicting its geometry and bonding characteristics.

What is the hybridization state of the carbon atoms in butane?
