What is an atomic orbital ?

What do you understand by an orbital? How is it different from an orbit?

(a) What is the number of molecular orbitals obtained by mixing of two atomic orbitals ? (b) Out of F_(2) and OF which of these molecules is (are) paramagnetic

According to the moleular orbital theory, all atomic orbitals combine to form molecular orbital by LCAO (linear combination of atomic orbitals) method When two atomic orbitals have additive (constructive) method When two atomic orbitals have additive (constructive) overlapping they form bonding molecular orbitals (BMO) which have lower energy than atomic orbitals whereas when atomic orbitals overlap subtractive higher energy antibonding molecular orbitals (ABMO) are formed Each MO occupies two electrons with opposite spin Distribution of electrons in MO follows Aufbau principle as well as Hund's rule MO theory can successfully explain the magnetic behaviour of molecules Bond strength increases when

How is bonding molecular orbital of hydrogen different from the antibonding molecular orbital ?

According to MOT, two atomic orbitals overlap resulting in the formation of molecular orbital formed. Number of atomic orbitals overlapping together is equal to the molecule orbital formed. The two atomic orbital thus formed by LCAO (linear combination of atomic orbital) in the phase or in the different phase are known as bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals respectively. The energy of bonding molecular orbital is lower than that of the pure atomic orbitals by an amount Delta . This known as the stabilization energy. The enerby of antibonding molecular orbital in increased by Delta' (destabilisation energy). Q. Which of the following statement(s) is true:
