Hybridization

The hybridization occurs in acetylene molecule is:

• sp
• sp³

• sp²

• dsp

Sp³ hybridization with one lone pair of electrons results in geometry:

• tetrahedral
• linear
• trigonal pyramidal
• bent

In water molecule, Oxygen atoms possess hybridization:

• sp²

• sp
• dsp³

• sp³

The example of molecule with sp hybridization is:

• ethanol
• methane
• ethyne
• ethylene

in which hybridization the maximum separation of hybrids orbitals occurs:

• sp²

• sp
• dsp³

• sp³

What are hybrid orbitals?

• Orbitals are formed by intermixing of atomic orbitals with same shape.

• Orbitals formed by the overlap of atomic nuclei.

• Orbitals are only found in molecules with multiple bonds.

• Orbitals have the same shape as atomic orbitals.

What happens to the shape of atomic orbitals if it does not involve in the process of hybridization:

• The shape of atomic orbitals remains unchanged if they do not undergo hybridization.
• The shape of atomic orbitals becomes spherical.
• The shape of atomic orbitals becomes linear.
• The shape of atomic orbitals becomes planar.

The molecule possess sp² hybridization along with 1 pi bond is:

• Ethane

• Ethene

• Ethyne

• Water

In which hybridization, the maximum bond angle is possible:

• sp²

• sp
• dsp³

• sp³

how many sigma & pi bonds are present in ethyne:

• 1σ & 1π

• 2σ & 1π

• 3σ & 2π

• 5σ & 1π
