Structure of Ethylene
Structure of Ethylene
Ethylene is a hydrocarbon.
As the name suggests it has four atoms of hydrogen bonds
that are paired with carbon atoms with a double bond.
All these six atoms H-C-H form an angle of 117.4°, close to
the 120° to form a hybridized carbon sp².
Further, the bond is rigid about the C-C bond with high
energy process by breaking the π-bond.
