What are bonding and antibonding orbitals ?
Which of the following statements about a p* antibonding molecular orbital is true? A pi* antibonding molecular orbital is formed when two p orbitals of similar phase overlap. A pi* antibonding molecular orbital is formed when two p orbitals of opposite phase overlap. A pi* antibonding molecular orbital is a higher-energy molecular orbital than a pi bonding molecular orbital. Both the statements “a pi* antibonding molecular orbital is formed when two p orbitals of opposite phase overlap” and “a pi* antibonding molecular orbital is a higher-energy molecular orbital than a pi bonding molecular orbital” are true.
Which of the following statements is incorrect: 1. the combination of two s orbitals gives bonding and antibonding sigma orbitals 2. antibonding orbitals are higher in energy than their corresponding bonding orbitals 3. a pi (bonding) orbital has two nodes 4. a sigma star (antibonding) orbital has a single node 5. the bond order of a molecule containing an equal number of bonding and antibonding electrons is zero
Differentiate between Bonding Orbital and Anti-Bonding Orbital?
rotation is possible around sigma bonds but not around pi bonds because pi bonds are always made from hybridized orbitals pi bonds are stronger and resist rotation sigma bonds occur above and below the internuclear axis while pi bonds are only along the internal axis or sigma bonds maintain orbital overlap during rotation while rotation would break orbital overlap between pi orbitals
