Chapter 1, Problem 1.20P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The hybrid-orbital picture for the water molecule using oxygen sp3-hybridized orbitals is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

A new set of orbitals formed from the combination of the atomic orbitals is known as hybrid orbitals. The hybrid orbitals are obtained due to the mixing of atomic orbitals with different azimuthal quantum numbers. The hybrid orbitals have the property of directionality that is the electron density in the hybrid orbitals is directional.

Interpretation Introduction

(b)

Interpretation:

The departures from tetrahedral geometry that might be expected from the presence of two unshared electron pairs are to be explained.
