Question

What is meant by hybridisation of atomic orbitals? Describe the shapes of sp, $sp^{2}$ and $sp^{3}$ hybrid orbitals?

Answer 1

1. Hybridisation of orbitals

              The mixing of orbitals of same atom with slight difference in their energy levels and redistributed to new orbitals of equivalent energy levels and shape is called hybridization.

              The newly formed orbitals are called hybrid orbitals. These hybrid orbitals have minimum repulsion within their electron pairs and considered as more stable. The Hybridisation is a tool to represent the geometry of the molecule.

2. The shape of different hybridization in the image given below.
