Question

explain the sp2 and sp3 hybridization with example ​

Answer 1

The mixing up of different orbitals of same energy level of an atom to produce equal number of hybrid-orbitals of same energy and identical properties is known as hybridization.

There are three types of hybridization.

sp3 hybridization

sp2 hybridization

sp hybridization

When one s-orbital and three p-orbitals overlap to produce four hybrid-orbitals it is known as sp3-hybridization.

These hybrid-orbital are identical in shape and energy and are at an angle of 109.5 degree from each other.

sp3-orbital are arranged in tetrahedral fashion. Example: Methane.

When one s-orbital and two p-orbitals overlap to produce three hybrid-orbitals it is known as sp2- hybridization.

These orbital are coplanar and directed towards the corners of an equilateral triangle at an angle of 120 degree from each other.

sp2-orbital are arranged in trigonal fashion. Example: Ethene.

Answer 2

$\huge\red{heya!!!}$

sp2 hybersdiastion is that in which one s and two p orbital include in hyberdisation

sp3 hyberdisation in which one s and three p orbitals are included .

alkenes always show sp2 hyberdisation

alkane always show sp3 hyberdiastion

so example of sp2 is ethene

example of sp3 is Ethane
