The structure and hybridization of $\mathrm{Si}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}ight)_{4}$ is

The structure and hybridization of $\mathrm{Si}\left(\mathrm{CH}_{3}ight)_{4}$ is
  1. Bent, $s p$
  2. Trigonal, $s p^{2}$
  3. Octahedral, $d^{2} s p^{3}$
  4. Tetrahedral, $s p^{3}$

Solution

$\quad$ Hybridisation $=\frac{1}{2}(4+4+0-0)=4$,
$s p^{3}$ tetrahedral. .
