← ScienceWhich bonding change results when atomic orbitals hybridize?
A)Increased sigma bond character✓
B)Decreased bond dissociation energy
C)Elimination of dipole moment
D)Reduced paramagnetism contribution
💡 Explanation
Hybridization mixes atomic orbitals enabling stronger, directional sigma bonds because through sp hybridization, electron density aligns more effectively, promoting increased sigma bond character rather than weaker bonds.
