Question

➡️ Give some salient features of Hybridization ? [Chemistry]​

Answer 1

$\mathfrak{\huge{\red{\underline{\underline{ANSWER :}}}}}$

Salient features of

Hybridization :

✍️ The number of hybrid orbitals is equal to the number of the atomic orbitals that undergo hybridization.

✍️ The hybrid orbitals are always equivalent in energy and shape.

✍️ The hybrid orbitals are more effective in forming stable bonds than the pure atomic orbitals.

✍️ These hybrid orbitals are directed in space in some preferred directions to have minimum repulsion between electron pairs & thus have a stable arrangement. Therefore, the type of hybridization indicates the geometry of the molecules.

Answer 2

Answer:

Explanation:

✔✔The hybridized orbitals have equivalent energies and identical shapes.

✔✔The number of hybrid orbitals is equal to the number of orbitals taking part in hybridization.

✔✔Both half-filled as well as completely filled orbitals of valence shell can take part in hybridization.

They are of three types
