Arrange the steps for determining the hybridization of an atom in the correct order. Start with the frist step at the top of the list

1. Draw a Lewis Structure using the molecular formula 2. Count the number of electron groups surrounding the central atom. 3. The number of hybrid orbitals required is equal to the number of electron groups.

Which of the following is the correct molecular orbital diagram for the an ionic species?

A

Hybrid orbitals are formed by the combination or "mixing or _____ orbitals from a specific atom. The number of hybrid orbitals formed is ______to/than the number of orbitals mixed, and the _____of hybrid orbital varies according to the specific orbitals mixed.

Atomic;equal;type

Which of the following statements correctly describe a __bond? Select all that apply

A multiple bond always contain at least one __bond. A __bond is formed by the sis to side overlap of two p orbitals.

Which of the following statements correctly describe molecular orbital bond orders? Select all that apply

The lower the molecular orbital bond order, the weaker the bonds between the atoms of the species. A species with more electrons in bonding than anti bonding molecular orbitals will have a positive molecular orbital bond order.

A particular hybrid orbital is designated sp3d2. What information is provided by the superscripts in this designation.

The number of each type of atomic orbital combined to produce this type of hybrid orbital.
