Question

Which statement is false? A sigma molecular orbital may result from overlap of p atomic orbitals perpendicular to the molecular axis (side-on). may result from overlap of p atomic orbitals along the molecular (head-on). may result from overlap of two s atomic orbitals. may result from overlap of one s and one p atomic orbitals. may be either bonding or antibonding. Carbon monoxide has ten bonding electrons and four antibonding electrons. Therefore it has a bond order of 3 7 l 5/2 2 Which of the following is the correct electron configuration for C_2?

Explanation / Answer

a. when the p orbital is overlaped side on, a pi bond is formed.
