hybridization problems

[katietietsworth_3c]

I am confused how to do hybridization within problems does anybody have a good way of explaining how to solve these problems?

[Kyle Golden Dis 2G]

To find the hybridization of an atom in a molecule, count the number of regions of electron density. If there are two regions, then the hybridization is sp. If three, then it is sp2. If four, then it is sp3. If there are five regions, then it is sp3d.

It may help to draw out the Lewis Structure so you can easily see how many electron density regions there are including lone pairs.

Also good to note that single bonds, double bonds, and triple bonds all equal one region of electron density.

You should draw the Lewis structure of the molecule first. You can determine the hybridization by looking at the electron densities (i.e. both the lone pairs and bond pairs)
