Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The sketch of hybrid orbitals.

$\text{(a)} sp$

$(\text{b}) s{p}^2$

$(\text{c}) s{p}^3$

$(\text{d)} s{p}^{3}d$

$(\text{e}) s{p}^3{d}^3$

Concept Introduction:

Hybridization is a mathematical procedure in which standard atomic orbitals are combined to form new atomic orbitals called hybrid orbitals.
