Which statement is wrong? (1) IIybridisation is the mixing of atomic orbitals prior to thcir combining into molecular orbitals. (2) sp \(^{2}\) hybrid orbitals are formed from two \(\mathrm{p}\) - and one s-atomic orbitals. (3) sp \(^{3} \mathrm{~d}\) hybrid orbitals are all at \(90^{\circ}\) to one another. (4) \(\mathrm{sp}^{3} \mathrm{~d}^{2}\) hybrid orbitals are directed towards the corners of the regular octahedron.
