Explanation:
During the formation of BeCl2, beryllium atom bonds with two chlorine atoms via single covalent bonds. The number of electron pairs around the central atom will be two. No lone pair is found in the molecule. If we analyse this information then we can conclude that BeCl2 has sp hybridization.

Explanation:
Since there are no unpaired electrons it undergoes excitation by promoting one of its 2s electron into empty 2p orbital. These half filled sp-orbitals form two σ bonds with two Cl atoms. Thus BeCl2 is linear in shape with the bond angle of 180° . These half filled sp-orbitals form two σ bonds with two Cl atoms.
