Sp3
The silicon atom in SiBr4 has a hybridization state of sp3, forming four sigma bonds with the four bromine atoms. Each bond is formed by overlap between an sp3 hybrid orbital on the silicon atom and a p orbital on each bromine atom.
The hybrid orbital with the least s character is the sp3 hybrid orbital, which consists of 25% s character and 75% p character. This hybridization occurs when an atom combines one s orbital with three p orbitals to form four equivalent sp3 hybrid orbitals.
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.
No, SiBr4 is not ionic. Silicon tetrabromide (SiBr4) is a covalent compound, as it consists of shared pairs of electrons between the silicon atom and the four bromine atoms.
there r 2 electrons in the s orbital, their r 6 electrons in p orbital , their r 10 electron's in the d orbital and 14 electrons in f 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.
There are only two hybridised orbitals. By the electron pair repulsion theory, the bond angle would be 180o.

The sigma bond between C2 and H in ethylene (CH2CH2) is formed by the overlap of the sp2 hybrid orbital on carbon (C2) and the 1s orbital on hydrogen (H). The sp2 hybrid orbital on carbon is formed by the combination of one s orbital and two p orbitals.

The hybridization state of SiBr4 is sp3 (tetrahedral). Silicon has 4 valence electrons, and in SiBr4, these electrons form 4 sigma bonds with the bromine atoms, resulting in a tetrahedral geometry.
