Question

Find the number of non-bonding molecular orbital from the following if z is the internuclear axis :
dz2+s,dx2y2+s,pz+dxz,s+dyz

Open in App
Solution

If z is the internuclear axis, then there are three non-bonding molecular orbitals dx2y2+s,pz+dxz,s+dyz.
On the other hand, the overlap dz2+s gives bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals.
