What are the hybrid orbitals in a molecule with a tetrahedral shape?

In a tetrahedral molecule eg methane (CH4), hybridisation occurs between the 2s orbital and three p orbitals to form four sp3 hybrid orbitals. See: http://www.chem1.com/acad/webtext/chembond/cb06.html and: http://www.mikeblaber.org/oldwine/chm1045/notes/Geometry/Hybrid/Geom05.htm

Does Cio4 have a bent shape?
No, it is a tetrahedral molecule
Is SiCl4 a bent molecule?
The shape of the Silicon tetrachloride molecule is tetrahedral, a very symmetrical form.
How you get bond angle of a tetrahedral shape molecule which have 1 lone pair?
Tetrahedral bond angle of a molecule which have a lone pair electron is 107, smaller than regular 109.5, due to the repulsion of electrons of lone pair.
What is the molecular geometry of a methane (CH4) molecule?
Methane has a tetrahedral molecular geometry. It has 4 bonding pairs of electrons and no lone pairs.

What is the Molecule shape of CH4?
Molecular shape is tetrahedral.It has no lone pairs.
What observation about methane can be explained using the orbital hybridization theory?
Simply it is SP3 Hypridization three P orbitals + one S orbital formed the 4 sp3 orbitals and it is logic experimentally u can see that Methane Molecule is tetrahedral so it has 4 corners which means 4 bonds
