Explain the type of hybridization.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

(a) sp-hybridisation : One s-orbital and one p-orbital can hybridize to give sp hybridization forming two equivalent sp-hybrid orbitals.

(b) `sp^(2)` hybridisation : One s-orbital sand two p-orbitals mix up to give three `sp2` hybrid orbitals.

(c) `sp^(3)` hybridiation : One S-orbtial and three p- orbitals hybridise to give four `sp3` hybride orbitals.
