Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The structure of a molecule with the formula
Concept introduction:
Hybridization of an atom in a molecule or ion is determined by the number of electron groups in its valence shell. The number of electron groups and the number of hybrid orbitals is the same.
An electron group is a lone pair or a bond. Single bond, double bond, and triple bond all are considered as a single electron group.
