\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{CH}_{3}

In case of sp^{3} hybridised carbon bond angle is 109^{\circ}28{}'; sp^{2} hybridised carbon, bond angle is 120^{\circ} and sp hybridised carbon, bond angle is 180^{\circ}.

\mathrm{CH}_{3}-\mathrm{C} \equiv \mathrm{C}-\mathrm{CH}_{3} \text { is linear. }
