Question

Explain the formation of f2 molecule on the basis of atomic orbital overlap

Answer 1

Fluorine - F- atomic umber - 9

Electronic Configuration - 1s² 2s² 2px² 2py²2pz¹

valence electrons --- 7

According to valence bond  theory  covalent bond F₂ is formed by overlapping of  half filled atomic orbital 2pz .

This result in Head on P-P overlapping .
