Question

1- If an atom in a molecule has the number of electron domains listed, what is its corresponding hybridization?

2 electron domains

      [ Choose ]            sp3d            sp5            sp            sp3            sp4            sp3d2            sp2      

2- If an atom in a molecule has the electron domain geometry listed, what is its corresponding hybridization?

LINEAR electron domain geometry

      [ Choose ]            sp5            sp3d            sp2            sp4            sp3d2            sp3            sp      

TETRAHEDRAL electron domain geometry

      [ Choose ]            sp5            sp3d            sp2            sp4            sp3d2            sp3            sp      

Explanation / Answer

1)
2 electron domain means sp

2)
linear means 2 elctron domains which will be sp

tetrahedral means 4 electron domain as central atoms forms 4 bonds here
It will be SP3
