MCQ
The linear combination of atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals takes place only when the combining atomic orbitals

$A$. have the same energy

$B$. have the minimum overlap

$C$. have same symmetry about the molecular axis

$D$. have different symmetry about the molecular axis

Choose the most appropriate from the options given below:

  • A
    $A, B, C$ only
  • $A$ and $C$ only
  • C
    $B, C, D$ only

    $B$ and $D$ only

Answer

Correct option: B.
$A$ and $C$ only
b
* Molecular orbital should have maximum overlap
