Question

explain the formation of lithium molecule on basis of molecular orbital​

Answer 1

Explanation:

The molecular orbital theory (MO) has been introduced for the diatomic hydrogen molecules. The same method can be applied to other diatomic molecules, but involving more than the 1s atomic orbitals. For the second period elements, the 2s and 2p orbitals are important for MO considerations. A linear combination of properly oriented atomic orbitals for the formation of sigma s and pi p bonds. The formation of bonds from the linear combination of atomic orbitals is the same as that of the valence bond theory. For simplicity, we are not going into the details of the theory, but simply show you how to construct the MO energy level diagram.
