Consider the hexatriene molecule \( \left(\mathrm{CH}_{2} \mathrm{CHCHCHCHCH} 2\right) \). a. Sketch the energy level diagram for the hexatriene molecule that would be formed using Huckel Theory ( \( p \) orbitals only). Label the highest occupied and lowest unoccupied orbitals b. Identify the hybridization for each carbon atom in this molecule and use this to explain the overall geometry of the hexatriene molecule
