Question

Fluorine molecule is formed by (A) the axial p - p orbital overlap (B) the sideways p - p orbital overlap (C) the s - s orbital overlap (D) the s - p orbital overlap

Tardigrade Admin · Accepted Answer

In F2 molecule, p - p orbitals overlap head on.

Q. Fluorine molecule is formed by

the axial $p - p$ orbital overlap

the sideways $p - p$ orbital overlap

the $s - s$ orbital overlap

the $s - p$ orbital overlap

In $F_{2}$ molecule, $p - p$ orbitals overlap head on.

Q. Fluorine molecule is formed by

the axial p−p orbital overlap

the sideways p−p orbital overlap

the s−s orbital overlap

the s−p orbital overlap

In F2​ molecule, p−p orbitals overlap head on.

the axial $p - p$ orbital overlap

the sideways $p - p$ orbital overlap

the $s - s$ orbital overlap

the $s - p$ orbital overlap

In $F_{2}$ molecule, $p - p$ orbitals overlap head on.
