Can anyone explain me hybridisation?

Question

Answer

Hybridisation is a chemical phenomenon that occurs in certain atoms, whereby atomic orbitals 'mix' or 'hybridise' from their usual arrangement to form a more energetically-favourable orbital arrangement. Consider the molecule Methane (CH4); in this molecule, the central carbon atom forms equivalent covalent bonds with 4 hydrogen atoms.

Answer

Orbital hybridisation (or hybridization) is the concept of mixing atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals (with different energies, shapes, etc., than the component atomic orbitals) suitable for the pairing of electrons to form chemical bonds in valence bond theory.

Answer

It's displacement of sigma  electrons pairs or delocalization of pie electrons in the saturated chain of hydrocarbons

Answer

it is the mixing of different energy orbitals to become hybrid orbitals of same energy level and become stable

Answer

Hybridisation is defined as the intermixing of s, p, d orbitals to produce a new set of orbitals is known as hybridisation

Answer

Let us consider ch4 ,we know carbon will form 1s-s bond and 3s-p bond so there will be energy difference in one of the atom of the compound but it can't happen so to explain the equal energy in all the bonds form we introduce the trm hybridization which is to form new set of orbitals with equal energy
