The two electrons that share an orbital repel each other.

All electrons bear a negative charge. They are held in their orbits by the attractive force of charged protons. The farther away an orbital is to the atomic nucleus the easier it is to expunge an electron from this distant orbital shell.

Explanation:

Because electrons have the same negative charge, they repel each other especially when they occupy the same orbital shell in an atom. To reduce this repulsion, each of the electrons in the orbital shell (remember electrons occupy orbital shells of atoms in 2s) assumes an opposite quantum (M<em>s</em>) spin; one with – ½ while the other + ½ .

In the molecular orbital model of cyclobutadiene, how many -antibonding molecular orbitals are there?

Citrus2011 [14]

There are one antibonding molecular orbitals present in molecular orbital model of c.

The cyclobutadiene has a pi system comprised of four individual atomic p - orbital and thus should have a four pi molecular orbitals. The compound is the prototypical antiaromatic hydrocarbon with 4 $\pi$ - electrons . Its rectangular structure is the result of jahn teller reaction which disorder the molecule and lowers its symmetry , converting the triplet to a singlet ground state. It is a small annulene . The delocalisation energy of the $\pi$ electrons of the cyclobutene is predicted to be zero .
