Question

What is sp3, sp2 and sp hybridization? Explain in simple form please...

​

Answer 1

sp3

orbitals to give four identical hybrid orbitals is known as sp3 or tetrahedral.

Sp2 Hybridization

This kind involves mixing of one ‘s’ orbital and two ‘p’ orbital’s of equal energy to give a new hybrid orbital known as sp2.

sp Hybridization

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

hope it helps u
