Question

What is hybrid-orbitals?

Open in App

Solution

Hybrid orbitals are the result of a model which combines atomic orbitals on a single atom in ways that lead to a new set of orbitals that have geometries appropariate to form bonds in the directions predicted by the VSEPR model. The VSEPR model predicts geometries that are very close to those seen in real molecules.
