The lewis structure of acetone, (CH3)2CO (C in the middle, with two C's and an O, bonded to it), the hybridization on each carbon atom in the molecule will be SP3, SP2, and SP3 respectively.

Acetone belongs to the class of chemical compounds known as ketones. Acetone is the most basic form of ketone that is known, containing three carbon atoms in a row with a double bond between oxygen and the central carbon atom.

To draw the Lewis structure of acetone, you need to figure out how many valence electrons the molecule has. After counting the number of valence electrons present in acetone, you may finish filling out the octets by positioning the electrons around the central atom.  The Lewis structure of acetone has a total of twenty-four valence electrons.

(a)  the hybridization of each carbon atom in the molecule will be SP3, SP2, and SP3 respectively.

(b) one C=O there is one pi bond and all others are sigma bonds.

(c) C-H bond will form by the overlap of SP3-s orbitals.

The structure is attached.
