Question

2. ABMO has energy then the corresponding AOs form which it is formed
a) Higher
b) Lower c) Same d) Zero​

Answer 1

Answer:

lower

Explanation:

please mark me as brnleast

Answer 2

• The subtraction of wave function between the molecular orbitals leads to the formation of Antibonding Molecular Orbitals.
• The formation is similar to destructive interference which occurs out of phase for the formation of ABMO.
• The Antibonding Molecular Orbitals (ABMO) have higher energy than the atomic orbital from which it is formed.
• Bonding Molecular Orbitals (BMO) and Antibonding Molecular Orbitals (ABMO) are formed when two atomic orbitals combine.

Hence, the correct option is (a) Higher.
