How many atomic orbitals must be mixed to make the sp2 hybrid orbital?

five atomic orbitals must be mixed into one ; one s orbital; three p orbital; one d orbital, forming sp3d orbital


What is sp2 hybridisation?

Hybridization in brief can be said as inter mixing of orbitals. But you may have questions such as why? where ? when it happens and what exactly it is? Its very simple for example as in your question consider methane. The carbon atom has 2 electrons in 1s orbital and; 2 electrons in 2s orbital and; 1 electron in 2px orbital and; 1 electron in 2py orbital.In methane before carbon atom undergo bonding with hydrogen it undergoes hybridization ,that is 2s orbitals and 2p orbitals combines or hybridizes and for methane it is sp3 hybridization that means an s orbital had combined with 3 of the 2p orbitals (2px,2py,2pz). It has an tetrahedral arrangement (like four corners of a triangular pyramid) of four lobes of angles approx 109.5 degrees(The angle between H-C-H). After hybridization you cannot differentiate s orbital and p orbital.And in that sp3 hybrid each lobe has one electron and all the lobes bond with hydrogen atoms containing single electron.Note that all the lobes must be treated as an orbital such that they can maximum hold only of two electrons.Thus methane is formed as an result of head on collision of sp3 hybrids and hydrogen atoms.

Why does Valence Bond theory sometimes use hybrid orbital rather than r b atomic orbital basis sets?

The Valence Bond Theory uses hybrid electron orbitals because it has been shown that the s and three p orbitals of an electron shell can occur as 4 orbitals with equal energy, thereby producing a single spectrograph line when split through a prism. The s orbital can remain alone, or hybridize with 1, 2, or all 3 p orbitals, refered to as sp, sp2 and sp3 respectively.


How Carbon has d orbital?

Electron Orbitals can form a hybrid in order to achieve a more stable element: sp, sp2, sp3, sp3d, sp3d2


Combination of one s orbital with one p orbital?

s orbitals are spherical, so there cannot be any angle 'between' an s orbital and a p orbital. However, each lobe of a p orbital is perpendicular (90 degrees in all directions) to the surface of an s orbital.

What atomic or hybrid orbital on O makes up the sigma bond between O and H in water H2O?

Oxygen atoms in water form sp3 hybridized orbitals. This configuration of bond angles and bond lengths between the electron pairs and hydrogen atoms on oxygen allow for the least strain.


Hybrid orbital with least s character is?

it is sp3d orbital with about 20% s character


What bond forms when two atomic or hybrid orbitals overlap to form a single bond?

This is the basis of Organic Chemistry. An sp3 hybrid orbital can overlap with another and the result is a COVALENT bond
