Bonding of Hybridized Orbital

Postby Grace Chen 3F » Wed Dec 01, 2021 8:23 pm

Can hybridized orbitals from pi bond?

No. Hybridized orbitals overlap head-on and make sigma bonds, while for a pi bond, lateral overlap is required, and this is only possible in unhybridized p and d orbitals.

Hybridized orbitals overlap head on and cannot form pi bonds. Pi bonds can only result from un-hybridized p orbitals that do not allow free rotation and overlap side to side

Why do hybridized orbitals not have the ability to have lateral overlap?
