  2. Orbital hybridisation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orbital_hybridisation

    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.

    3, X = F, Br, Cl, I) via a molecular orbital (MO) description, building on the concept of the "half-bond" introduced by Rundle in 1947. [ 4 ] [ 5 ] In this model, two of the four electrons occupy an all in-phase bonding MO, while the other two occupy a non-bonding MO, leading to an overall bond order of 0.5 between adjacent atoms (see Molecular ...

    [12] [27] Namely the atomic s and p orbital(s) are combined to give four sp i 3 = 1 ⁄ √ 4 (s + √ 3 p i) orbitals, three sp i 2 = 1 ⁄ √ 3 (s + √ 2 p i) orbitals, or two sp i = 1 ⁄ √ 2 (s + p i) orbitals. These combinations are chosen to satisfy two conditions. First, the total amount of s and p orbital contributions must be ...

    C 6 H 13 CO 2 H + 2 SF 4C 6 H 13 CF 3 + 2 SOF 2 + HF. The formation of the trifluoromethyl derivative sometimes competes with formation of tetrafluoroalkyl ethers, which arise from the reaction between difluoromethyl cation and acyl fluoride. [11] [12] Sulfur tetrafluoride can be used to fluorinate polymers efficiently.

  6. Isovalent hybridization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isovalent_hybridization

    In chemistry, isovalent or second order hybridization is an extension of orbital hybridization, the mixing of atomic orbitals into hybrid orbitals which can form chemical bonds, to include fractional numbers of atomic orbitals of each type (s, p, d). It allows for a quantitative depiction of bond formation when the molecular geometry deviates ...

    Sulfur in SF 4 is in the +4 oxidation state, with one lone pair of electrons. The atoms in SF 4 are arranged in a see-saw shape, with the sulfur atom at the center.One of the three equatorial positions is occupied by a nonbonding lone pair of electrons.
