Chemistry-Molecular Orbital Theory

NEET Chemistry Molecular Orbital Theory Match the Following Question

Type: Match the Following-match the column-Hard-Class 11

Match Column-I with Column-II.

Column-I Column-II (a) Bonding Molecular Orbital (i) Higher energy than atomic orbitals (b) Antibonding Molecular Orbital (ii) Formation through constructive interference (c) Molecular Orbital Characteristics (iii) Equal number of combining atomic orbitals (d) Energy Comparison (iv) Lower energy than atomic orbitals

Choose the correct matching:

A

a-ii, b-i, c-iii, d-iv

B

a-iv, b-ii, c-i, d-iii

C

a-iii, b-iv, c-ii, d-i

D

a-i, b-iii, c-iv, d-ii

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The bonding molecular orbital is formed through constructive interference, resulting in lower energy than atomic orbitals, while the antibonding molecular orbital has higher energy due to destructive interference. The total number of molecular orbitals formed equals the number of combining atomic orbitals.
