RATE ME IF FOUND USEFULHybridization: The process of intermixing of two or more atomic orbital of an atom having comparatively same energy to form same number of new identical orbitals is called as hybridization. The new identical orbitals are called Hybrid orbitals. Characteristics of Hybridization: 1) Atomic orbitals of same atom having almost same energy take part in hybridization. 2) Number of hybrid orbitals formed in the process equals the number of atomic orbitals which take part in hybridization. 3) Hybrid orbitals formed are identical. They possess same energy, structure and size. 4) Hybrid orbital

Chemical Bonding Though the periodic table has only 118 or so elements, there are obviously more substances in nature than 118 pure elements. This is because atoms can react with one another to form new substances called compounds. Formed when two or more atoms chemically bond together, the resulting compound is unique both chemically and physically from its parent atoms. Let's look at an example. The element sodium is a silver-colored metal that reacts so violently with water that flames are produced when sodium gets wet. The element chlorine is a greenish-colored gas that is so poisonous that it was used as a weapon in World War
