Chemistry - CHEMICAL BONDING Question with Solution | TestHub

Hybridization is the mixing of atomic orbitals prior to their combining into molecular orbitals

$\mathrm{s}{\mathrm{p}}^2$hybrid orbitals are formed from two$\mathrm{p}$atomic orbitals and one S atomic orbital

${\mathrm{d}}^2\mathrm{s}{\mathrm{p}}^3$hybrid orbitals are directed towards the corners of a regular octahedron

${\text{sp}}^3\text{d}$hybrid orbitals are all at$90^{\mathrm{o}}$to one another
