Question
Chapter 21, Problem 21.130QP
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The bonding in Silicon in terms of hybrid orbital has to be described.

Concept Introduction:

Valence bond theory: The VSEPR theory tells about the shapes of molecules and ions by taking the consideration that the outermost electron pairs are arranged about each atom so that the pairs of electrons are kept at a distance from one molecule to other, thereby minimizing the repulsion of electron-pair.

Hybrid orbitals:

Hybrid orbitals are formed from the combination of atomic orbitals of the isolated atom. Hybrid orbitals are used to describe the formation of bonds in the directions predicted by VSEPR model.
