Question

Item 4

Part A (pic above)

Select all of the molecular orbitals from the image below that possess two angular nodes (i.e. nodal planes).

Part B

Consider the interaction of two hydrogen 1s atomic orbitals of the same phase. Which of the statements below is an incorrect description of this interaction?

The molecular orbital formed is lower in energy than a hydrogen 1s atomic orbital. The molecular orbital formed has a node between the atoms. A maximum of two electrons may occupy the molecular orbital formed. The molecular orbital formed is cylindrically symmetric. A sigma bonding molecular orbital is formed.

Explanation / Answer

B two nodal plane orbital

The molecular orbital formed has a node between the atoms. incorrect
