Thank you for your reply :)
From what I have read now there are three sigma bonds created by overlapping of the sp2 hybrid orbitals and one pi bond created by the 'promoted' electron in one of the p atomic orbitals. The connection I was looking for before was that of how the MO diagram looks...
Ok, i am investigating the electronic structure of fullerenes through Near edge x-ray absorption spectroscopy and I really need to know the connection between hybridization theory and LCAO. Everywhere I look it says the carbon atoms in C60 are sp2 hybridized ( sp3 due to angle strain), but as I...
