Hybridization of 1st excited states can lead to what are called \( sp^2 \) states. \( sp^2 \) states are hybrids of the 2px, 2py and 2s states (as in problem 9). These states are orthogonal and normalized, and they are part of an orthonormal basis of that spans the space of all 1st excited states of this potential.
