Document Summary

Sp hybrids and practice: these are formed when an s atomic orbital and, specifically, a pz atomic orbital fuse on the (cid:272)e(cid:374)t(cid:396)al ato(cid:373). The o(cid:396)(cid:271)ital"s he(cid:396)e a(cid:396)e (cid:1005)8(cid:1004) apart and have linear geometry. Notice that there were two orbitals before hybridization and there are still orbitals after hybridization. Sp2: these are a pz plus hydridize. trigonal its orbitals 120 apart. hybrids formed when an s a px or py orbital. This hybridization has planar geometry and and has. Sp3 hybrids: these are formed when an s, px, py, and pz orbital fuse around the central atom. These hybrids are the first of the hybrids to have three-dimensional tetrahedral geometry and are therefore, more difficult to imagine and to draw. One common way to draw this hybridization is by drawing a cube and attaching an orbital to each corner; each orbital should be 109 apart.
