Which consequence results when molecular orbitals hybridize incorrectly?

💡 Explanation

Incorrect hybridization leads to unfavorable electron distribution; Angular geometry becomes distorted through minimization of the potential energy of electronic repulsion effects, because stable bond angles depend on correct hybridization. Therefore, it changes geometry rather than reaction rate or dipole moment effects.
