Expert Answer:
|
Bonding molecular orbital
|
Antibonding molecular orbital
|
|
i) It is formed by the addition overlap of atomic orbitals.
|
i) It is formed by subtraction overlap of atomic orbital.
|
|
ii) It may or may not have a node.
|
ii) It always has a node in between the nuclei of bonded atoms.
|
|
iii) In this orbital electron density is more in between the nuclei. Electrons in this orbital lead to attraction between atoms.
|
iii) In this orbital electron density is less in between the nuclei. Electrons in this orbital lead to repulsion between atoms.
|
|
iv) Its energy is less than the energy of the atomic orbitals.
|
iv) Its energy is more than the energy of the atomic orbitals.
