Answer:

B) The molecular orbital formed is lower in energy than a hydrogen 1s atomic orbital.

Explanation:

When two atoms of hydrogen come close to each other , there is formation of molecular orbital . Due to overlap of 1 s orbital of one and 1 s orbital of another atom , two molecular orbitals are formed . One of these molecular orbital has energy less than 1 s atomic orbital . It is called 1 s sigma bonding molecular orbital . The other molecular orbital has energy more than 1 s atomic orbital . It is called antibonding molecular orbital . Two electrons occupy bonding sigma molecular orbital .

So , the statement that "the molecular orbital formed is lower in energy than a hydrogen 1s atomic orbital " is wrong .

What is found only in an experimental investigation?
andreev551 [17]
 Experimental investigations<span> involve a process in which a "fair test" is designed and variables are actively manipulated, controlled, and measured in an effort to gather evidence to support or refute a </span>causal relationship<span>. Experimental investigations have a control group which does not receive any treatment. A classic example is "What is the effect of light color on plant growth?" In this experiment, the variable color of light is changed by the student. The student may compare red light to green light to natural light.

How could you interpret the events taking place on a molecular level in the images seen here? A) Kinetic energy decreases from l
MaRussiya [10]

i believe the answer is, b. heat energy is continuously added at each step. As energy is added, the molecular motion/kinetic energy increases, and matter changes state. In the last state, plasma, enough energy has been added to cause the atoms to disassociate into ions. 

hope this is right! :33
