### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Hybridization**: - Hybridization is a process where atomic orbitals of similar energy levels mix to form new hybrid orbitals. These hybrid orbitals have equal energy and are used to form chemical bonds. 2. **Energy Levels of Orbitals**: - Atomic orbitals have different energy levels. For example, the 1s orbital has a lower energy than the 2s and 2p orbitals. When orbitals have a large difference in energy, they cannot effectively mix. ...

How many hybrid orbitals will be formed if six orbitals of an atom take part in hybridisation?

The comcept of redistribution of energy in different orbitals of an atom associated with different energies to give new orbitals of equal (or somethimes it may be non-equal) energy oriented in space in definite directions is called hybridization and formed new orbitals are called hybrid orbitals. The bonds formed by such orbitals are called hybrid bonds. The process of mixing of orbitals itself requires some energy. Thus, some additional energy, is needed for the hybridisation (mixing) of atomic orbitals. Q. Which of the following statement is correct?

The concept of hybridisation has been introduced to explain the shapes of molecules. It involves the intermixing of two or more atomic orbitals belonging to same atom but in or more atomic orbitals beloging to sasme atom but in different sub-shells so as to intermix and redistibute energies to from equivalent orbitals called hybrid orbitals.Depending upon toh enumber and nature of the orbitals involved, the hybridisation may be divided into sp (linear), sp^(2) (trigonal), sp^(3) (tetrahedral), sp^(3)d (trigonal bipyramidal), sp^(3)d^(3) (octahedral) and sp^(3)d^(3) (pentagonal bipyramidal) types. it may be noted that the orbitals of isolated atoms never hybridise and they do so at the time of bond formation. The d-orbital involved in dsp^(2) hybridisation is:
