Which of the following molecules represents the order of hybridisation $sp^2, sp^2, sp, sp$ from left to right

Question

Which of the following molecules represents the order of hybridisation $sp^2, sp^2, sp, sp$ from left to right atoms?

Accepted Answer

The molecule $CH_2 = CH - C \equiv CH$ has the hybridisation order: $CH_2$ ($sp^2$), $CH$ ($sp^2$), $C$ ($sp$), $CH$ ($sp$). The number of orbitals required in hybridisation is equal to the number of $\sigma$-bonds around each carbon atom.
