Homework Statement



Find the other sp hybrid orbital given [itex]\Psi[/itex][itex]_{sp1}[/itex] = 3[itex]\Psi[/itex][itex]_{2s}[/itex] + 4[itex]\Psi[/itex][itex]_{2pz}[/itex] using the orthonormal relationships.


I do not know how to start the problem. if someone could help get me pointed in the right direction or help me through it I would greatly appreciate it : )
