Explain 'sp' hybridisation
  • 1 answers

Yogita Ingle 5 years, 10 months ago

sp hybridization is observed when one s and one p orbital in the same main shell of an atom mix to form two new equivalent orbitals. The new orbitals formed are called sp hybridized orbitals. It forms linear molecules with an angle of 180°

  • This type of hybridization involves the mixing of one ‘s’ orbital and one ‘p’ orbital of equal energy to give a new hybrid orbital known as an sp hybridized orbital.
  • sp hybridization is also called diagonal hybridization.
  • Each sp hybridized orbital has an equal amount of s and p character, i.e., 50% s and p character.

Examples of sp Hybridization:

  • All compounds of beryllium like BeF2, BeH2, BeCl2
  • All compounds of carbon-containing triple Bond like C2H2.
