Use valence bond theory to describe the number and types of
hybrid bonding orbitals on the central atom of each of the
following.
(a) AlF4− type of hybridization:
sp-hybridization
sp2-hybridization

In AlF4−, aluminum has hybrid
orbital(s).
(b) IBr3
type of hybridization:
sp-hybridization
sp2-hybridization
sp3-hybridization
sp3d-hybridization
sp3d2-hybridization
In IBr3, iodine has hybrid orbital(s).
(c) CS2
type of hybridization:
sp-hybridization
sp2-hybridization
sp3-hybridization
sp3d-hybridization
sp3d2-hybridization
In CS2, carbon has hybrid orbital(s).
