Solved: Write orbital diagrams (boxes with arrows in them) to represent the electron
Chapter 10, Problem 55(choose chapter or problem)
Write orbital diagrams (boxes with arrows in them) to represent the electron configurationswithout hybridizationfor all the atoms in PH3 . Circle the electrons involved in bonding. Draw a three-dimensional sketch of the molecule and show orbital overlap. What bond angle do you expect from the unhybridized orbitals? How well does valence bond theory agree with the experimentally measured bond angle of 93.3 ?
