why is Dz^2 orbital filled first in sp3d hybridization
Not just this, my teacher told me there is a specific order for just d orbitals where dz2, then dx2-y2, then dxy orbital gets hybridized.
I am confused as to why is this (I can understand for first 2 cuz they are diff but why dxy before dzy or dxz)
