What is Hybridization?

Redistribution of the energy of orbitals of individual atoms to give orbitals of equivalent energy happens when two atomic orbitals combine together to form hybrid orbital in a molecule. This process is called hybridization. The new orbitals thus formed are known as hybrid orbitals.

Types of Hybridization

Based on the types of orbitals involved in mixing, the hybridization can be classified as sp3, sp2, sp, sp3d, sp3d2, sp3d3. Let us now discuss the various types of hybridization along with their examples.

sp Hybridization

sp hybridization is observed when one s and one p orbital in the same main shell of an atom mix to form two new equivalent orbitals. The new orbitals formed are called sp hybridized orbitals. It forms linear molecules with an angle of 180°

This type of hybridization involves the mixing of one ‘s’ orbital and one ‘p’ orbital of equal energy to give a new hybrid orbital known as an sp hybridized orbital.

sp hybridization is also called diagonal hybridization.

Each sp hybridized orbital has an equal amount of s and p character, i.e., 50% s and p character.

sp Hybridization

Examples of sp Hybridization:

All compounds of beryllium like BeF2, BeH2, BeCl2

All compounds of carbon-containing triple Bond like C2H2.

$\huge\star{\tt{\underline{\underline{\red{Answer}}}}}\star$

• Which type of hybridization involves the mixing of One S and one p e orbital resulting in the formation of two equivalent sp hybrid
• Each SP hybrid orbitals has 50% S character and 50% P character
• thethe two SP hybrid point in the opposite direction along the z Axis with projecting bigger positive lobes and very small negative lobes which provides more effective overlapping resulting in the formation of stronger bonds
