Hybridization

[Nicole Jakiel 4F]

In terms of hybridization, will we only need to figure out which hybridization will work? In other words, will we only need to find which hybridization will match the VSEPR model?

[Isabelle_Maletz_3E]

I believe the answer to your question is yes. The angles the hybrid orbitals take match the angles described in the VSEPR theory.

[Katie Sy 1L]

yeah i believe so

[DavidEcheverri3J]

How many levels of hybridization will we need to know? sp3d2? more?

[MichaelMoreno2G]

I hope we only have to know sp3d2 but i'm not too sure if we have to know any other levels.

[Avery Zuelch 1D]

Yes, I believe we only need to know up to that amount. I would only assume this because no problems that we covered in class or in the homework have gone above it.
