Chapter 6, Problem 10SAQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To find the central atom’s hybridization when the molecule has bent molecular geometry.

Concept introduction:

Hybridization is a mathematical procedure which depicts the standard atomic orbitals combined together and forms a new hybrid orbital. Valance bond theory along with molecular orbital theory found to be very important to study the arrangement of molecules. It will give a clear idea how atomic orbital are dissociated with the atoms.
