Chapter 5.4, Problem 5.8E
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation: A molecular orbital diagram for BeH2 molecule should be drawn.

Concept Introduction:

Molecular orbital diagram is a descriptive tool that explains the chemical bonding of molecules. Molecular orbital is a mathematical function that describes the wave-like behavior of an electron in a molecule. Molecular orbitals are formed by combining atomic orbitals. Molecular orbitals are named as bonding and anti-bonding. The energy of bonding molecular orbital is less than that of the antibonding molecular bonding.
