Which of the following statement is correct?

AEnergy difference should be more between orbitals which undergo hybridization.
BNumber of hybrid orbitals formed should be same as the number of atomic orbitals involved in hybridization.
Correct Answer
CHybrid orbitals arrange around the center of the atom unsymmetrically.
DHybrid orbitals can form $$\pi$$ bonds.

Solution

Number of hybrid orbitals formed is equal to number of atomic orbitals involved in hybridisation. $$\pi$$ bonds will be formed always by pure orbitals (p or d orbitals). Hybrid orbitals arrange around the centre of atom gymmetrically depending on number of bond pairs and lone pairs.
