Chapter 1, Problem 1(choose chapter or problem)
Allene, \(\mathrm {H_2C=C=CH_2}\), is somewhat unusual in that it has two adjacent double bonds. Draw a picture showing the orbitals involved in the \(\sigma\) and \(\pi\) bonds of allene. Is the central carbon atom \(sp^2\)- or \(sp\)-hybridized? What about the hybridization of the terminal carbons? What shape do you predict for allene?
