Which type of hybridization leads to a trigonal planar electron domain geometry?

Answer
A
s
B
sp
C
sp2
D
sp3

Explanation

A trigonal planar electron domain geometry has three electron domains around the central atom. Three domains correspond to sp² hybridization, which combines one s orbital with two p orbitals. Thus, the correct choice is sp².
