What type of hybridization can lead to a T-shaped molecule?
Select one:
a. sp3d
b. sp2
c. sp3
d. sp
sp3d hybridization. Combination of 1s, 3p and 1d orbital result in the formation of sp3d orbital in which three lobes are oriented towards the corners of a triangle and the other lie perpendicular to them to minimize the repulsions.
The atoms bonded to the central atom lie at the ends of a T with 90° angles between them. Molecules with an trigonal bipyramidal electron pair geometries have sp3d (or dsp3) hybridization at the central atom. ICl3 has a T-shaped molecular geometry.
