The correct Answer is:
To determine which hybridization does not conform to the statement "the hybrid orbitals are at angle of X degrees to one another," we need to analyze the angles associated with different types of hybridization. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Hybridizations**: The common hybridizations we will analyze are sp3, sp2, sp3d2, and sp. 2. **Analyze sp3 Hybridization**: - In sp3 hybridization, the hybrid orbitals are arranged in a tetrahedral geometry. - The bond angle is approximately **109.5 degrees** (or 109 degrees 28 minutes). - Since this angle is not a simple degree measurement, it does not conform to the statement. 3. **Analyze sp2 Hybridization**: - In sp2 hybridization, the hybrid orbitals are arranged in a trigonal planar geometry. - The bond angle is **120 degrees**. - This angle is a simple degree measurement, so it conforms to the statement. 4. **Analyze sp3d2 Hybridization**: - In sp3d2 hybridization, the hybrid orbitals are arranged in an octahedral geometry. - The bond angles include **90 degrees** and **180 degrees**. - These angles are also simple degree measurements, so they conform to the statement. 5. **Analyze sp Hybridization**: - In sp hybridization, the hybrid orbitals are arranged in a linear geometry. - The bond angle is **180 degrees**. - This angle is a simple degree measurement, so it conforms to the statement. 6. **Conclusion**: - The only hybridization that does not conform to the statement "the hybrid orbitals are at angle of X degrees to one another" is **sp3**, because its angle is expressed in degrees and minutes (109 degrees 28 minutes). ### Final Answer: **The hybridization that does not conform to the statement is sp3.** ---
