= Isovalent hybridization
{wiki=Isovalent_hybridization}
Isovalent hybridization is a concept in chemistry that refers to the mixing of atomic orbitals of equal energy to form new hybrid orbitals that can participate in chemical bonding. The term "isovalent" indicates that the hybrid orbitals formed have similar energy levels and characteristics, which allows them to effectively engage in bonding with other atoms. In isovalent hybridization, the orbitals involved in the hybridization process typically belong to the same type or category (e.g.
