Salient features of Molecules Orbital Theory (MOT)

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

1. The electrons in an atom are found in atomic orbtials, the electrons, in a molecule are found in molecuar orbitals.
2. The molecule orbitals are formed by the combination of atomic orbitals of comparable energies ande proper symmetry.
3. The BMO has lower energy and hence greater stability than the corresponding b ABMO.
4 The molecular orbitals are filled by electrons in accordance with Aufau principle, Pauli.s exclustion principle and the Hung.s rule.
