Question

Chapter 9, Problem 9B.3P
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether occupation of the bonding orbital in the H2+ molecule ion by one electron has a greater or lesser bonding effect than occupation of the antibonding orbital by one electron has to be predicted.  Whether the conclusion is true for all internuclear separations has to be predicted.

Concept introduction:

Two different atomic orbitals combine to form two different types of molecular orbitals- bonding and anti-bonding molecular orbital.  Bonding orbitals are more stable and less energetic while the antibonding orbitals are less stable and more energetic.  Electrons of bonding orbitals contribute in bonding interaction while electrons of antibonding orbitals contribute in antibonding interaction.
