Chemistry - CHEMICAL BONDING Question with Solution | TestHub

Molecular orbitals obtained from $2{\mathrm{p}}_{\mathrm{x}}$ and $2{\mathrm{p}}_{\mathrm{y}}$ orbitals are symmetrical around the bond axis.

A $\pi$-bonding molecular orbital has larger electron density above and below the internuclear axis.

The ${\pi }^{\ast }$ antibonding molecular orbital has a node between the nuclei.

In the formation of bonding molecular orbital, the two electron waves of the bonding atoms reinforce each other.
