    Can 1s and 2s atomic orbitals from molecular orbitals

    What type of orbitals can overlap to form a covalent bond?

    Write the important conditions required for the linear combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals.

    Molecular orbitals are formed by the overlap of atomic orbitals. Two atomic orbitals combine atom from two molecular orbitals called vonding molecular orbital (BOM) and anti bonding molecular orbital (ABMO). Energy of anti bonding orbital is raised above the parent atomic orbitals that have combined and the energy of the bonding orbital is lowered than the parent atomic orbitals. Energies of various molecular orbitals for elements hydrogen to nitrogne increase in the order : sigma_(1s)ltsigma_(1s)^(**)ltsigma_(2s)ltsigma_(2s)^(**)lt(pi_(2py)~~pi_(2py))lt sigma_(2py)lt(pi_(2py)^(**)~~pi_(2py)^(**))ltsigma_(2pz)^(**) and for ozygen and fluorine order of energy of molecular orbitals id given below : sigma_(1s)ltsigma_(1s)^(**)ltsigma_(2s)ltsigma_(2s)^(**)ltsigma_(2pz)lt(pi _(2px)^(**)~~pi_(2py)^(**))sigma_(2pz)^(**) Different atomic orbitals of one atom combine wiht the atomic orbitals of the second atom whihc have comparable energies and proper orientation. Further, if the overlapping is head on, the molecular orbital is called 'Sigma' (sigma) and if the overlap is atreal, the molecular orbital is called 'pi', (pi). The molecular orbitals are filled with electrons according to the same rules as followed for filling of atomic orbitals. However, the order for filling is not the same for all molecules or their ions, Bond order is one the most ipmrtaint parameters to compare the strength of bonds. Which of the following pair is expected to have the same bond order ?

    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. If x-axis is the molecular axis, then pi -moleulcar orbitals are formed by the overlap of :
