can unhybridized atomic orbitals hold sigma bond electron pairs?
To my knowledge, hybridized AOs can hold both lone pair e- as well as sigma bond e- pairs.
But I'm not sure if unhybridized AOs can do the same.
Thanks in advance!![Smile :smile: :smile:](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
