MCQ
Hybridisation involves :
  • A
    Addition of an electron pair
  • Combination and redistribution of atomic orbitals.
  • C
    Removal of an electron pair
  • D
    Separation of orbitals

Answer

Correct option: B.
Combination and redistribution of atomic orbitals.
Hybridization is the concept of mixing atomic orbitals to form new hybrid orbitals.
Atomic orbitals with similar energy combine to give degenerated hybrid orbitals.
The number of combining atomic orbitals is equal to the hybridised orbitals.
They involve redistribution of electrons of combined atomic orbital to hybrid orbitals.
