✦ Synopsis
A least-squares procedure for the construction of four 2s-2p hybrid orbital direction vectors that deviate least from four given bond vectors emanating from a tetravalent atom is described. The procedure is used as a tool for the interpretation of structural data from X-ray diffraction, electron diffraction, and microwave experiments.
