Question

Note that a new type of orbital is used in Kh that is not used in any known atom. How many nodal planes will there be in a sketch of this type of orbital?

Open in App

Solution

The nodal planes in $s, p, d$ and $f$ and new orbital will be $0, 1, 2, 3$ and $4$ respectively. Thus, when a new type of orbital is used in $K h$ that is not used in any known atom, four nodal planes will be there in a sketch of this type of orbital.

Q. According to MOT, two atomic orbitals overlap resulting in the formation of molecular orbitals. Number of atomic orbitals overlapping together is equal to the molecular orbital formed. The two atomic orbital thus formed by LCAO (linear combination of atomic orbital) in the same 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 orbital by an amount
