sp3, sp2, sp
name hybridization in order of increasing bond length
sp, sp2, sp3
which hybridization is known to be more acidic? why?
sp because more s character and it is lower in energy
what is an important factor to keep in mind when dealing with hybridization
if resonance affects it
which is assigned a negative dipole
