What is hybridization?
Think about how mixing different colored paints forms a new color.
Name a molecule with sp3 hybridization.
Consider common molecules that contain carbon.
What type of hybridization occurs in ethylene (C2H4)?
Recall the structure of ethylene and the number of regions around carbon.
True or False: All single bonds are sigma bonds.
Think about bond formation types.
Investigate the hybridization states in a molecule of benzene (C6H6). What is the hybridization, and how does it affect bond geometry?
Consider the nature of the bonds and how they overlap.
Given a molecule with a central atom having one lone pair and three bonding pairs, determine its hybridization and molecular shape.
Use VSEPR theory to think about space distribution around the central atom.
