Order When Writing

[Jedrick Zablan 3L]

Simple question but on the final do we write the Hybridization as dsp^3 and d^2sp^3 or sp^3d and sp^3d^2?

[Jacob Puchalski 1G]

I think either would be fine since they're both correct.

[AniP_2D]

Both are correct but I think the preferred way is to right it beginning with d.

[Anna Chen 1K]

I agree that both are correct the preferred way is to write it beginning with d.

[Patricia Chan 1C]

Both are correct! Lavelle seems to like the notation with d in the beginning. Either way, you wouldn't get marked down for using one instead of the other. Hope this helps!

[Betania Hernandez 2E]

It can be written as either!
