Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.40QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The hybridization of P in PF5 has to be found out.
Concept Introduction:
Hybridization:
Hybridization is the phenomenon of intermixing of the atomic orbitals of different energy that results in the formation of set of new hybrid orbitals of equivalent energies. The various types of atomic orbitals are: s, p, and d orbitals. Types of hybridization that involves s, p and d orbitals are sp, sp2, sp3, sp3d, sp3d2, sp3d3.
