Which outcome occurs when molecular overcrowding alters orbital hybridisation?

💡 Explanation

Altered orbital hybridisation causes increased steric hindrance and reactivity because the electron density shifts, leading to greater repulsion via steric hindrance, rather than decreased bond angles therefore lowering reactivity.
