Perhaps the simplest molecule we can imagine is hydrogen, H2. As we have discussed, to produce the molecular orbitals for hydrogen, we add together the valence atomic wavefunctions to produce the ... From the geometry of the molecules, as predicted by VSEPR, we can deduce the hybridization of the central atom.

The subtle change in the energy of the σ2p bonding orbital, relative to the two degenerate π-bonding orbitals, is due to s-p hybridization that is unimportant to the present discussion. An impressive example of the advantages offered by the molecular orbital approach to bonding is found in the oxygen molecule.

This interaction introduces an element of s-p mixing, or hybridization, into the molecular orbital theory. The result is a slight change in the relative energies of the molecular orbitals, to give the diagram shown in the figure below.

Atomic, Hybrid, and Molecular Orbitals General Idea The atomic orbitals (AO) are theoretical regions around the nucleus where the probability of finding an electron is high. The covalent bind involves a sharing of electrons. The hybridization determines the shape of the molecule. Atomic Orbitals s orbital:
