Question

what is meant by hybridisation of atomic orbitals describe the shapes of sp sp2 sp3 hybrid orbitals with 1 example

Answer 1

Hybridization is defined as an intermixing of a set of atomic orbitals of slightly different energies, thereby forming a new set of orbitals having equivalent energies and shapes. For example, one 2s-orbital hybridizes with two 2p-orbitals of carbon to form three new sp2 hybrid orbitals.
