Electron Density Distribution of Ethane Molecule Single Bond

by STEAM3D

Description

The sp³ hybridization is used to describe the bonding in the ethane molecule. When a bond is formed between carbon atoms, two sp³ orbitals overlap to form a σ-bond. When a bond is formed between a carbon atom and a hydrogen atom, the sp³ orbital and the s-orbital overlap to form a σ-bond.
