Study Table 7.4; compare it to Table 7.3 (page 179) and complete the following statements. • A molecule with a species type of AX3 will have a central atom with _______ hybridization. Modified Valence Bond Theory assumes hybridization (mixing) of atomic orbitals. Mix one s and one p Mix one s and two p Mix one s and three p Mix one s, three p and one d Mix one s, three p and two d An atom hybridizes in such a manner that all the electron groups have hybrid orbitals as homes Hybridization type and the AXiEj notation go hand in hand: AX2: hybridizes as AX3: hybridizes as • A molecule with a species type of AX3E will have a central atom with _______ hybridization.
