Sp³, sp² and sp hybridization, or the mixing of s and p orbitals which allows us to create sigma and pi bonds, is a topic we usually think we understand, only to get confused when it reappears in organic chemistry molecules and reactions. When I took general chemistry, I simply memorized a chart of geometries and […]
sp2/sp Hybridization, Bond Angle, Molecular Geometry Tutorial Video
Orgo Basics Video Series: Video 3 sp2 and sp hybrids provide organic compounds with unique shapes and reacting abilities. This video breaks down the hybridization for sp2 and sp fused orbitals using carbon and other commonly seen atoms to help you understand hybrids, geometry, and bond angles. Looking to understand molecular orbitals? Visit my Molecular Orbital […]
MCAT Chemistry Hybridization Review for sp3 sp2 and sp
Before you can really understand molecular and electronic geometries, you need to have a strong understand of why and how atomic hybridization occurs. The videos below are taken from my Organic Chemistry Basics tutorial series to help you make sense of sp3, sp2, and sp hybridization. Once mastered you’ll find the MCAT Chemistry: Electronic and Molecular […]
