Assuming the bond direction to the z-axis, which of the overlapping of atomic orbitals of two atom (A) and (B) will result in bonding ?
(I) s-orbital of A and `p_(x)` – orbital of B
(II) s-orbital of A and `p_(z)` ​– orbital of B
(III) `p_(y)` - orbital of A and `p_(z)` ​– orbital of B
(IV) s-orbital of both A and B

A

I and IV

B

I and II

C

III and IV

D

II and IV

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
D
`s + P_(z) overset(" along - axis ")rarr sigma`
`s + s overset(" along - axis ")rarr sigma`
