❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
explain hybridisation in chemistry❤​

Answer 1

Hybridisation (or hybridization) is a process of mathematically combining two or more atomic orbitals from the same atom to form an entirely new orbital different from its components and hence being called as a hybrid orbital.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

Scientist Pauling introduced the revolutionary concept of hybridization in the year 1931.

He described it as the redistribution of the energy of orbitals of individual atoms to give new orbitals of equivalent energy and named the process as hybridisation.

In this process, the new orbitals come into existence and named as the hybrid orbitals.

Rules for Calculating Hybridisation

The following rules are observed to understand the type of hybridisation in a compound or an ion.

• Calculate the total number of valence electrons.
• Calculate the number of duplex or octet OR
• Number of lone pairs of electrons
• Number of used orbital = Number of duplex or octet + Number of lone pairs of electrons
• If there is no lone pair of electrons then the geometry of orbitals and molecule is different.
