Coefficient in front of orbitals

[Brandon Valafar]

How do we know when to include a coefficient in front of the hybridized orbitals? And what coefficient do we put in what situations?

[Victor James 4I]

the coefficient tells which energy level the orbitals came from

so if it was 2sp then the s and p orbitals came from the n = 2 energy shell

dont think we need to write it at all on the final tho

[Kaitlynn Tran 3F]

Most of the common hybridization combinations have n=2 as the coefficient
