Hybrid Orbitals
(made from combining s and p orbitals)
You
may rotate the images below by holding down the mouse button
while dragging the mouse over an image. The dots represent a
surface of constant probability for finding an electron in these hybrid
orbitals. The data files from which these images are built were
made by W. R. Salzman, Department of Chemistry, University of Arizona
(salzman@ccit.arizona.edu).
