Okay, so if we were to look at sp3 hybridization, the way that works is that 1s and 3p orbitals form sp orbitals.
00:15
And so one, you can think of this superscript 3 here.
00:19
You can think of the s as having a 1.
00:21
We don't write the 1.
00:23
But if you look, 1 plus 3 would be the 4 orbitals that we would have here that are hybridized.
00:30
So in an sp3, four orbitals are hybridized.
00:37
If we look at sp2, in s and 2, and 2 p orbitals form sp orbitals, one of the p's is left unhybridized.
00:48
And again, if we were to put a 1 here, 1 plus 2 is 3, 1, 2, 3 orbitals.
00:56
And if we were to look at sp orbitals, again, an s and a p would form the sp orbitals...
