Question

The collect set of symbols of the molecular orbitals given below is

• A. $(i)=\sigma *,(i i)=\sigma,(i i i)=\pi^{*},(i v)=\pi$
• B. $(i)=\sigma^{*},(i i)=\pi,(i i i)=\pi^{*},(i v)=\sigma$
• C. $(i)=\pi^{*},(i i)=\sigma,(i i i)=\sigma^{*},(i v)=\pi$
• D. $(i)=\pi,(i i)=\sigma^{*},(i i i)=\sigma,(i v)=\pi^{*}$

Answer 1

Answer: (C)

Hence, option (c) is the correct answer, i.e.
(i) $=\pi^{*}$
(ii) $=\sigma$
(iii) $=\sigma^{*}$
(iv) $=\pi$, molecular orbitals
