- Structure of Methane (CH₄) :: In excited state (1s²2s¹pₓ¹py¹2pz¹), the central carbon atom undergoes sp³ hybridization. One 2s orbital and three 2p orbitals of carbon form 4 sp³ hybrid orbitals. Now these 4 hybrid orbitals overlap in a head-on position with s-orbital of four H atoms and they form four б - bonds. The structure of CH₄ is tetra hedral. And the bond angle is 109°28`
