sp^2 Due to 3 pi bonds, In reality a single pi 'cloud' of 6 delocalised electrons exists around the ring (refer to resonance structure).

What are hybridisation schemes?

The mixing of atomic orbitals is called hybridisation.


Benzene is what kind of bond type?

Benzene has covalent bonds. Each of the six carbons in benzene is sp2 hybridized meaning the ring has both sigma bonds and pi bonds. Benzene is aromatic meaning its pi electrons are delocalized and form a pi system.

Why does thermocol dissolve in benzene?

Thermocol is another name for polystyrene (PS), which is a type of plastic. Benzene is an industrial solvent, and it's primary use is to make styrene. The chemical structure of benzene, a non-polar organic hydrocarbon solvent, and of PS is such that benzene will dissolve styrene and polystyrene.

Which type of hybridization is present in ethanol?

The hybridisation of carbon is sp3- the bond angles around carbon are all tetrahedral. The COH bond angle is a little less than tetrahedral (lone pair replusion- according to VSEPR theory)- sp3 hybridisation is a good approximation.
