Orbital Model of Sp3 Hybridization
Product Code : SCL-CL-11540
Orbital Model of Sp3 Hybridization (SKU SCL-CL-11540) shows how one s and three p orbitals mix to give four equivalent sp3 orbitals pointing to the corners of a tetrahedron, the arrangement found in methane and every saturated carbon. The plastic kit, with metal elements, was designed for teachers and students of organic, inorganic and stereochemistry. As its supplier, Science Lab Supplies quotes the kit from Ambala, India, to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors.
Specifications
Each fact about the sp3 hybridisation kit sits in its own table row. In short, it is built from plastic with metal elements and contains a number of atomic elements for making different kinds of molecules besides the sp3 orbital set, giving students a three-dimensional idea of structural formulae that a blackboard drawing cannot convey.

Applications and Experiments for the Sp3 Hybridization Model
With the sp3 model students can see why methane has bond angles of about 109.5 degrees and why ammonia and water, which also use sp3-type orbitals, are pyramidal and bent. It serves NCERT Class 11 chemical bonding and hydrocarbons, Class 12 haloalkanes and B.Sc. stereochemistry practicals and lectures.
- Class 11 chemistry: tetrahedral geometry and VSEPR shapes of CH4, NH3 and H2O, set beside the Geometry of Molecules chart.
- Class 11 hydrocarbons: structure and conformations of alkanes.
- Class 12 chemistry: chirality at an sp3 carbon in haloalkanes.
- B.Sc. chemistry: optical isomerism and three-dimensional representation of molecules, reviewed with the Isomer chart.
Standard Scope of Supply
Supply consists of the plastic model parts with metal elements and a number of atomic elements for building sp3 structures and other molecules. The piece count per kit is confirmed on the quotation for your order, together with the packing and delivery time.
Packing, MOQ and Lead Time
Ask for one kit or for one per bench group. The quotation Science Lab Supplies sends back lists packing, delivery time and price for exactly that number, and sp2 or molecular model kits and other chemistry lab equipment in India can be added so a whole bonding unit is covered.
As a registered exporter with an Importer-Exporter Code, Science Lab Supplies can ship to buyers in Zambia, Rwanda, South Africa, Qatar, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. Science Lab Supplies is registered for GST (GSTIN 06ADEPJ0574F2ZU).

Frequently Asked Questions
What shape does the sp3 model show?
It shows four hybrid orbitals directed to the corners of a tetrahedron, about 109.5 degrees apart, which is the geometry of a carbon atom with four single bonds.
Which topics is the model most useful for?
Chemical bonding, alkanes, and stereochemistry topics such as conformations and chiral centres, from Class 11 through B.Sc. level, where three-dimensional shape matters most.
Who is the supplier of this hybridisation model?
Science Lab Supplies supplies the sp3 model without manufacturing it. Its Ambala, India, staff send quotations to schools, colleges, contractors and distributors for the number of kits requested.
Should I buy the sp2 model as well?
If you teach alkenes or carbonyl compounds, yes. Comparing the flat sp2 arrangement with the tetrahedral sp3 one helps students understand the difference between single and double bonds.
