Q13 of 68 Page 39

Which of the following angle corresponds to sp2 hybridisation?

The hybridization sp2 has orbital s donating 33.33% percent to the structure and 2 orbitals of p, donating rest of the percentage to the molecule i.e. 66.66%.

Thus, the shape of the molecule is trigonal planar. Where it is angled at 1200 degrees to each other.


Hybridization is the process of orbital mixing.
