Problem

When hybridisation involving

d

-orbitals are considered then all the five

d

-orbitals are not degenerate, rather

d_{x^2-y^2}

d_{z^2}

and

d_{xy}

d_{yz}

d_{zx}

form two different sets of orbitals and orbitals of appropriate set is involved in the hybridisation. Molecule having trigonal bipyramidal geometry and

sp^3d

hybridisation,

d

-orbitals involved is: a.

d_{xy}

d_{yz}

d_{x^2-y^2}

d_{z^2}
