To determine the geometry involved in `sp^3d` hybridization, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand Hybridization Hybridization is a concept used to explain the bonding in molecules. It involves the mixing of atomic orbitals to form new hybrid orbitals that can accommodate the bonding pairs of electrons. ### Step 2: Identify the Hybridization Type In this case, we are dealing with `sp^3d` hybridization. The notation indicates that one s orbital, three p orbitals, and one d orbital are mixed together to form hybrid orbitals. ...

As F_(5) molecule is sp^(3) d hybridised and is trigonal bipyramidal (TbP) shape Which d-orbital is involved in sp^(3) d hyridisation .

Hybridisation helps us to understand the geometry of the molecules. This is because hybridised orbitals are directed in space in some preferred directions to have stable arrangement, which determine the geometry. The common hybridisation are sp (linear), sp^(2) (trigonal planar), sp^(3) (tetrahedral), sp^(3)d (trigona bipyramidal), sp^(3)d^(2) (octahedral) and sp^(3)d^(3) (pentagonal bipyramidal). The presence of lone pairs in addition to bond pairs distort the geometry because "lone pair "-" lone pair repulsion"gt" lone pair "-" bond repulsion" gt" bond pair" -"bond pair repulsion" .
