A) remains \[s{{p}^{2}}\] in reactant as well as product
B) changes from \[{{\operatorname{sp}}^{2}}\,to s{{p}^{3}}\]
C) changes from \[s{{p}^{3}}\,to\text{ }s{{p}^{2}}\]
D) cannot be determined
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
This problem includes concept of allotropic form of carbon (fullerene) and electrophilic substitution reaction of fullerene. When fullerene undergo electrophilic substitution, it undergo changes of hybridisation of carbon from\[{{\operatorname{sp}}^{2}}\,to s{{p}^{3}}\].
