Chapter 3, Problem 6CTQ

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: The reason behind each orbital of $120°$ hybrid orbital set is called as $s{p}^2$ hybrid orbital should be explained.

Concept introduction: Two or more of orbitals undergo redistributions of their different energies so as to form mathematically averaged orbitals in terms of energy although they may differ in shape and orientation. The energy and orientation of the new hybrid orbital depends upon by the kind and number of orbitals used in the hybridization.
