Answer 1

➠ AnSwer :-

• Molecular orbital theory is more powerful than valence-bond theory because the orbitals reflect the geometry of the molecule to which they are applied.
• But this power carries a significant cost in terms of the ease with which the model can be visualized
• The atomic orbitals overlap to form new orbitals called molecular orbitals. .
• The electrons in the molecules are filled in the new energy states called the Molecular orbitals similar to the electrons in an atom being filled in an energy state called atomic orbitals.
