The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C2 molecule is?
1 answer:
The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C₂ molecule is 2pπ orbitals.
<h3>What is Molecular Orbital Theory?</h3>According to this theory,
- Molecular orbitals are formed by intermixing of atomic orbitals of two or more atoms having comparable energies
- The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of atomic orbitals combined.
- The shape of molecular orbitals formed depends on the type of atomic orbitals combined
- Only atomic orbitals having comparable energies and the same orientation can intermix
- Bonding M.O. is formed by the additive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has lower energy and high stability.
- Antibonding M.O. is formed by the subtractive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has higher energy and low stability.
- Bonding M.O. is represented by
while Antibonding M.O. is represented by

What does density mean?
- The density of an area refers to the quantity of things—which may include people, animals, plants, or objects—there are in it.
- Divide the number of objects by the area's measurement to determine density.
- A country's population density is calculated by dividing its total population by its area, expressed in square kilometers or miles.
We can calculate the volume of the cube by cubing the side of the cube.
Volume of cube = ( 1.000 cm)³
= 1.000 cm³
We can now determine the amount of lead in the cube by multiplying by the density. Because we know we have a 1.000 cubic centimeter and that lead has a density of 11.35 grams per cubic centimeter, we have 11.35 grams of lead.
= ( 1.000 cm³) ( 11.35 )
= 11.35 g
