Tetrahedral number

A tetrahedral number, or triangular pyramidal number, is a figurate number that represents a pyramid with a triangular base and three sides, called a tetrahedron. The nth tetrahedral number, Ten, is the sum of the first n triangular numbers, that is, The tetrahedral numbers are: 1, 4, 10, 20, 35, 56, 84, 120, 165, 220, ... (sequence in the OEIS) (Wikipedia).

Worked examples: Finding the hybridization of atoms in organic molecules | Khan Academy

We can find the hybridization of an atom in a molecule by either looking at the types of bonds surrounding the atom or by calculating its steric number. In this video, we use both of these methods to determine the hybridizations of atoms in various organic molecules. View more lessons or p

Steric number | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

One way to determine the hybridization of an atom is to calculate its steric number, which is equal to the number of sigma bonds surrounding the atom plus the number of lone pairs on the atoms. In this video, we focus on atoms with a steric number of 4, which corresponds to sp³ hybridizati
