1.	What is Hybridisation? Explain.What will be the state of the hybridisation of the central atom in each of the following species: PCl5, CCl4,[Ni(CO)4],BF3.
Answer» Hybridisation is defined as the mixing of the atomic orbitals belonging to the same atom but having slightly different energies so that a redistribution of energy takes place between them resulting in the formation of new orbitals of equal energies and identical shapes. The new orbitals thus formed are known as hybrid orbitals Hybridisation of P in PCI₅ : sp³d Hybridisation of C in CCI₄ ∶ sp³ Hybridisation of Ni in [Ni(CO)₄] : sp³ Hybridisation of B in BF₃ ∶ sp³d
