What is Hybridization of Electronic Orbitals

The Classes of Higher Dimensional Polytopes in Chemical, Physical, and Biological Systems
This is the interaction of the electronic orbitals of atoms entering the molecule, leading under certain conditions to the formation of higher dimensionality of molecules.

Abstract
Polytopes of the highest dimension corresponding to sugar molecules with five and six carbon atoms have been constructed. Based on the study of the geometry of these polytopes of dimensions 12 and 15, simplified three-dimensional models of sugar with five and six carbon atoms were obtained, and the chains of these molecules were analyzed. The geometry of protein molecules in various conformations was investigated, taking into account their highest dimension. It was found that Pauling's quasi-flat models do not reflect the spatial structures of the polypeptide chains of protein molecules. An opinion was expressed that the highest dimension of biomolecules is a consequence of the conditions for the emergence of life from the LUCA protocells more than 4.5 million years ago.
