(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The atomic orbitals that mix to form the hybrid orbitals of nitrogen atom in 2,6dimethylpyrazine are to be determined.

Concept introduction:

The atomic orbital is the wave function that is used to find the probability to find an electron around the nucleus of an atom. It is the space around the nucleus of an atom where the electrons are supposed to be found.

Hybridization is the process of intermixing of atomic orbital of slightly different energies to form hybrid orbitals that have similar energy. These orbital have lower energy and more stability than the atomic orbital.

Hybridization of the central atom can be determined from the number of electron groups around the central atom in the Lewis structure of the molecule. Single bond, double bond, triple bond and lone pair all are considered as single electron group.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The orbital in which the lone pairs of nitrogen atom reside is to be determined.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether the hybridization of carbon in CH3 is the same as that in the ring or not is to be determined.
