Question

How are Antibonding Orbitals Found?

Answer 1

The formation of Antibonding orbitals:

Step 1: When the electron lies outside the area between two nuclei known as antibonding orbitals.

Step 2: As the two atom cross each other. electrons start out-of -phase( destructive interference) overlap and lead the formation of molecular bond.

Thus, Antibonding orbitals are formed.
