Indicate the incorrect statement:

A

An 'sp' hybrid orbital is not lower in energy than both s-and p-orbitals

B

`2 sp and 2p` orbitals of carbon can be hybridized to yield two new more stable orbitals

C

Effect hybridisation is not possible with orbitals of widely different energies

D

The concept of hydration has a greater significance in the `VB` theory of localised orbitals than in the `MO` theory

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
