The correct Answer is:
To determine which orbital cannot form a pi bond through lateral overlap with a p_y orbital, we need to analyze each option provided in the question. Let's break down the solution step by step. ### Step 1: Understanding the p_y Orbital The p_y orbital is oriented along the y-axis. It has a specific shape that allows it to overlap with other orbitals to form bonds. Pi bonds are formed through lateral (side-to-side) overlap of orbitals. **Hint:** Remember that pi bonds require lateral overlap, while sigma bonds require head-on overlap. ### Step 2: Analyzing Option 1: d_{xz} + p_y The d_{xz} orbital lies between the x and z axes. When we consider the overlap of d_{xz} with p_y, we find that the p_y orbital overlaps with the node of the d_{xz} orbital. This results in zero overlap, meaning no pi bond can form. **Hint:** Check the orientation of the orbitals to see if they can overlap effectively. ### Step 3: Analyzing Option 2: d_{x^2 - y^2} + p_y The d_{x^2 - y^2} orbital is oriented along the x-axis and y-axis. When it approaches the p_y orbital, they can overlap head-on, leading to the formation of a sigma bond, not a pi bond. **Hint:** Identify if the orbitals can form a sigma bond, which indicates they cannot form a pi bond. ### Step 4: Analyzing Option 3: d_{xy} + p_y The d_{xy} orbital is situated in the xy-plane. When it overlaps with the p_y orbital, they can achieve lateral overlap, allowing for the formation of a pi bond. **Hint:** Look for lateral overlaps that can lead to pi bond formation. ### Step 5: Analyzing Option 4: p_z + p_y The p_z and p_y orbitals are oriented along the z-axis and y-axis, respectively. When they approach each other, they do not overlap effectively, resulting in zero overlap, meaning no pi bond can form. **Hint:** Consider if the orbitals are oriented in such a way that they can overlap at all. ### Conclusion Based on the analysis: - Option 1 (d_{xz} + p_y) cannot form a pi bond due to zero overlap. - Option 2 (d_{x^2 - y^2} + p_y) forms a sigma bond, not a pi bond. - Option 3 (d_{xy} + p_y) can form a pi bond. - Option 4 (p_z + p_y) cannot form a pi bond due to zero overlap. Thus, the correct options that cannot form a pi bond with p_y are **Option 1 and Option 4**. ### Final Answer The p_y orbital cannot form a pi bond by lateral overlap with: - **Option 1: d_{xz}** - **Option 4: p_z**
