In an octahedral structure , the pair of d orbitals involved in `d^(2)sp^(2)` hybridization isA. `d_(x^(2) - y^(2)) ,d_(z^(2)`B. `d_(xz),d_(x^(2)- y^(2))`C. `d_(z^(2)),d_(xz)`D. `d_(xy),d_(yz)` |
Answer» Correct Answer - a Only thoes d orbital whose lobes are directed along X-,Y- and Z- directions hybridise with s and p orbitals . In other three d orbital `d_(xy) d_(xz) and d_(xz)` the extent of their overlap with x and y orbitals is much lesser than `d_(x^(2) - y^(2))` and `d_(x^(2)` orbitals. |
