Hybrid Orbitals Hybrid orbitals are a combination of atomic orbitals that result from the mixing of different types of orbitals. They are composed of sigma and pi orbitals corresponding to the bonding and antibonding interactions between atoms. These hybrid orbitals play a crucial role in the formation of chemical bonds, such as single, double, and triple bonds. They are essential for understanding the molecular geometry and properties of compounds.
