Q
Q: What is the hybridization of a molecule with a tetrahedral shape?
Solution:
A tetrahedral shape corresponds to sp3 hybridization.
Steps: 5
Show Steps
Step 1: Understand what hybridization means. Hybridization is the mixing of atomic orbitals to form new hybrid orbitals.
Step 2: Identify the shape of the molecule. A tetrahedral shape means that the molecule has four bonds arranged around a central atom.
Step 3: Recall the types of hybridization. The common types are sp, sp2, and sp3.
Step 4: Recognize that a tetrahedral shape is formed when one s orbital and three p orbitals mix together.
Step 5: Conclude that this mixing results in four equivalent sp3 hybrid orbitals, which are arranged in a tetrahedral shape.
