How far apart are the sp3 orbitals in an sp hybridization?

Sp2 orbitals are used in the expansion of the molecules shape. The difference in distance between the Sp2 orbital in an SP hybridization is 120 degrees.


What meant by hybridization of atomic orbital?

Hybridization of atomic orbitals is the intermixing of atomic orbitals having a approximate energy to form equal number of hybrid orbitals having the same shape, size and energy but pointing in different directions. The new orbitals which are formed are "hybrids" of the originals and have properties that are somewhere in between. For example, a common hybridization is sp3 where three p orbitals combine with an s orbital to form four new orbitals. Other combinations (such as sp and sp2) are also possible.


Why 2 carbon atoms cant form 4 bonds between them?

When carbon atom undergoes sp hybridization there will be two unchanged p orbitals (Px and Py considering z-axis as molecular axis) and two sp orbitals(hybridized orbitals).Mechanism of sp hybridization: The ground state carbon atom has 2 es in the 2s orbital and 2 es in the 2p orbital.On excitation the one of the 2s electron is transferred to an empty 2p orbital( say 2pz).Then the half filled 2s orbital and 2pz orbital undergo hybridization yo form to two equivalent sp orbitals(on the molecular axis).The will be a maximum of 3 bonds that 2 carbon atoms can make: It can be explained by the sp hybridization.When two sp hybridized carbon atoms combine through the z-axis as molecular axis then the unchanged p orbitals undergo lateral overlap forming 2 pi orbitals and one sp orbitals of each carbon atom overlap horizontally forming a sigma orbital.But the other sp orbital of carbon atom cannot overlap since the sp orbitals lie in the same molecular axis.This prevents the formation of the fourth bond.
