Hybrid Orbitals
Key Points
The number of hybrid orbitals obtained equals the number of
atomic orbitals mixed.
The type of hybrid orbitals obtained varies with the types of
atomic orbitals mixed.

Explain these facts with diagrams that show the sequence and occupancy of MOs.
PLAN:
Find the number of valence electrons for each species, draw the MO
diagrams, calculate bond orders, and then compare the results.
SOLUTION:
N2 has 10 valence electrons, so N2+ has 9.
O2 has 12 valence electrons, so O2+ has 11.
