    Understandings 

    ● A hybrid orbital results from the mixing of different types of atomic orbitals on the same atom.

    Applications and skills 

    ● Explanation of the formation of sp3, sp2, and sp hybrid orbitals in methane, ethene, and ethyne.
    ● Identification and explanation of the relationships between Lewis (electron dot) structures, electron domains, molecular geometries, and types of hybridization.

    Guidance
    Students need only consider species with sp3, sp2, and sp hybridization.

    Hybridization overview 

    This video is going reviewing what we know about orbitals as well as introduce the new concept of hybridization starting from 5:30min.

    Hybridization explained - student presentation 

    TASK:
    1. Please see the picture of the sp3 hybridization on the right to use as a model for you to explain the sp2 and/or sp hybridization. Use the internet, pearsons textbook pages 201-203 and the video  to help you.
    2. Create a visual poster with diagrams to help you explain the hybridization of sp2 and/or sp.
    3. Present your explanation using a poster and the Flipgrid below  
    4. Peer assess others considering:
    Accuracy 
    Clarity 
    Use of visuals ​
