Answer:

The answer is given below.

Explanation:

sp3 Hybridization

The new orbitals formed are called sp3 hybrid orbitals. These are directed towards the four corners of a regular tetrahedron and make an angle of 109°28' with one another. Each sp3 hybrid orbital has 25% s character and 75% p character. Example of sp3 hybridization: ethane (C2H6), methane.

Each sp3 hybrid orbital has 25% s character and 75% p character. Example of sp3 hybridization: ethane (C2H6), methane.The bonds in a methane (CH4) molecule are formed by four separate but equivalent orbitals; a single 2s and three 2p orbitals of the carbon hybridize into four sp3 orbitals. In the ammonia molecule (NH3), 2s and 2p orbitals create four sp3hybrid orbitals, one of which is occupied by a lone pair of electrons.

I hope this helps you a lot .

sp³ hybridisation :

  • Intermixing of one s- orbital and three p-orbitals of an atom to give four identical sp³ hybrid orbitals is called sp³ hybridisation.
  • The four sp³ hybrid orbitals are arranged tetrahedrally around the central atom.
  • For example, in Methane, carbon undergoes sp³ hybridization and gives four sp³ hybrid orbitals. Each sp³ hybrid orbital has one unpaired electron.
  • The four sp³ hybrid orbitals overlap with 1s orbitals of hydrogen to form 4 (sp³-s)σ bonds.
