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) σ2p z (i) Antibonding molecular orbital (b) π2p x (ii) Bonding molecular orbital (c) σ2s (iii) Larger electron density above and below (d) π2p y (iv) Node between the nuclei

Choose the correct matching:

A

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

B

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

C

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

D

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

Correct Answer

Option A

Detailed Explanation

The σ2p z orbital is a bonding molecular orbital, while the π2p x has larger electron density above and below the bond axis. The σ2s is an antibonding molecular orbital, and the π2p y contains a node between the nuclei, as discussed in the molecular orbital theory.
