Chapter 3, Problem 3.13YT
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

To review the percent s character in each of the hybrid AOs in the figure and to write the percentage of the appropriate AO.

Concept introduction:

The s character of the orbital increases going from sp3 to sp2 to sp. A 2s AO is more compact than a 2p AO, so the hybrid AO becomes more compact as the s character increases. With a shorter hybrid AO, bonds made from it must also be shorter in order to maintain sufficient orbital overlap.
