CHEMICAL BOND
Hybridization (short and easy notes)
🔹 Defination:
Hybridization is the mixing of atomic orbitals (s,p,d) of similar energy to form new equal
orbitals called hybrid orbitals.
📌These hybrid orbitals help explain shape and bonding of molecules.
✨Why hybridization happens
. To make stronger bonds
. To give molecules a specific shapes
. To make orbitals equal in energy
, ✏️ Types of Hybridization
1.Sp Hybridization
🔹 Formation
1s +1p = 2sp orbital
🔹Shape
Linear (Straight Line)
🔹Bond Angle
180°
🔹 Example
BeCl₂
🔹 Diagram
Structure:
Orbital representation:
