Chapter 1, Problem 1.30AP
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

The hybrid-orbital picture for the hydronium ion (H3O+) using oxygen sp3-hybridized orbitals is to be drawn.

Concept introduction:

The atomic orbitals combine to form the new set of orbitals 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 HOH bond angles in hydronium ion are to be compared with those in water.

Concept introduction:

The atomic orbitals combine to form the new set of orbitals 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.
