SummaryHistory and usesOverviewTypes of hybridisationHybridisation of hypervalent moleculesHybridisation in computational VB theoryPhotoelectron spectraLocalized vs canonical molecular orbitals In chemistry, orbital hybridisation (or hybridization) is the concept of mixing atomic orbitals to form 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. For example, in a carbon atom which forms four single bonds, the valence-shell s orbital combines with three valence-shell p orbitals to form four equivalent sp mixtures in a tetrahedral arrangement around t…
