Detailed Solution

There are three types of hybridized carbon atoms:  sp3, sp2, and sp.

Therefore, the number of sp3 hybrid orbitals is 4+4, the number of sp2 hybrid orbitals is 3+3, and the number of sp hybrid orbitals is 2+2+2.

Therefore, the sp:sp2:sp3 ratio is 6:3:2 

Hence the correct answer is D) CH3  CH = CH  C  CH.
