MCQ
The fluorine molecules is formed by
  • A
    $p-p$ orbitals (sideways overlap)
  • $p-p$ orbitals (end-to-end overlap)
  • C
    $sp-sp$ orbitals
  • D
    $s-s$ orbitals

Answer

Correct option: B.
$p-p$ orbitals (end-to-end overlap)
b
Fluorine molecule is formed by axial $p - p$ orbital overlap. This results in the formation of sigma bond between $2 F$ atoms. The participating atomic orbitals are $2 p _{ z }$ orbitals of two $F$ atoms if $Z$ axis is the internuclear axis.
