Hybridization in Molecules Containing Double and Triple Bonds
Lewis structure of ethyne, which contains a triple bond
The sp hybridized orbitals are used to overlap with the 1s hydrogen orbitals and the other carbon atom. The remaining, non-hybridized p-orbitals overlap for the double and triple pi bonds.
