Key Points: Hybridisation

Hybridisation is the process of mixing orbitals of nearly similar energy from the same atom to form a new set of equivalent orbitals of exactly equal energy called hybrid orbitals.

\[H=\frac{1}{2}[V+Y-C+A]\]

where V = valence electrons of central metal atom, Y = number of monovalent atoms surrounding central atom, C = total positive charge, A = total negative charge on the molecule.

Characteristics of Hybridisation:

  • Number of hybridised orbitals = number of orbitals that participated in hybridisation.
  • Hybridised orbitals are always equivalent in energy and shape.
  • Hybrid orbitals are more effective in forming stable bonds than pure atomic orbitals.
  • Hybrid orbitals are directed in space in some preferred directions → determines geometry of the molecule.
