Hybridization:
- It is the phenomenon of intermixing atomic orbitals of slightly different energies and shape to form new hybrid orbitals.
- The hybrid orbitals have equivalent energies and identical shapes to that of parent orbitals.
- Hybrid orbitals are effective in forming stable bonds than atomic orbitals.
- They are directed in space in some preferred direction to have a stable arrangement.
Types of Hybridization:
Types of hybridization | Atomic orbitals involved | Structure of molecule | Geometry | Examples |
sp | one s + one p | |
Linear | BeCl2, BeH2, C2H2 |
sp2 | one s + two p | Triagonal planar | BF3, BCl3, C2H4 | |
sp3 | one s + three p |
|
Tetrahedral | CH4, CCl4, SnCl4 |
dsp2 | one d (dx2-y2) + one s + two p | Square planar | [PtCl42-], [NiCN42-] | |
sp3d | one s + three p + one d (dz2) | |
Triagonal bipyramidal | PF5, PCl5 |
sp3d2 | one s + three p + two d (dx2-y2and dz2) | Octahedral | SF6, [CrF6]3- | |
sp3d3 | one s + three p + dxy, dyz, dxz | Pentagonal bipyramidal | IF7 |
Explanation:
sp3d2 hybridization:
- The hybridization of one s, three p, and two d orbitals (dx2-y2and dz2) results in 6 sp3d2 hybrid orbitals.
- The electron density lobes of these 6 sp3d2 orbitals are directed towards the vertices of an octahedron.
- The angle between each pair of sp3d2 hybrid orbitals is 90°.
- The bonds in the central square plane make angles of 90° between adjacent pairs and also with the axial bonds.
- Compounds of the typeAX6, AX5E, AX4E2 are sp3d2 hybridized.
The figure below is the graphical representation of sp3d2 hybridization in a molecule:
Hence, the Molecule obtained by sp3d2 hybridization has a bond angle (s) of 90°.
