"Answer: sp3 hybridization is seen in water
Explanation:
In the hybridization of oxygen, the oxygen has 2 sigma bonds, 2 lone pairs of electrons in addition to Hydrogen atom thus it occupies 4 orbitals in total. As these 4 orbitals are developed, they occupy 1 s and 3 p orbitals respectively. Thus, water will exhibit sp3 hybridization.
It's geometry is tetrahedral and shape is bent."
