In CO2 molecule carbon atom undergoes sp hybridization. Two sp hybridized orbital of carbon atom overlap with two p-orbital’s of oxygen atoms to make two sigma bonds while other two electrons of carbon atom are involved in pπ – pπ bonding with oxygen atom. This results in its linear shape [with both c-o bond of equal length (115 pm)] with no dipole moment.
