Molecular orbitals are formed by the overlap of atomic orbitals. The combining orbitals must have proper orientation so that they can overlap to a considerable extent. Two atomic orbitals combine to form two molecular orbitals called bonding molecular orbital and antibonding molecular orbital. Bonding molecular orbital is stable and antibonding molecular orbital is unstable. sigma MO is formed by head on overlap while pi MO is formed by sidewise overlap. The MOs are filled with electrons according to the same rules as followed for filling atomic orbitats. Bond order is one of the most important parameter to compare the bond strength and bond length of bonds. Why has N_2 a larger dissociation energy than N_2 ^(+) whereas O_2 has a lower dissociation energy than O_(2)^(+) ?

Which of the following combinations of atomic orbitals gives antibonding pi MO (assume z - axis as internuclear axis) ?
