4.Chemical Bonding and Molecular Structure
medium
Which of the following molecular orbitals has maximum number of nodal planes ?
A
$\sigma 1s$
B
$\sigma 2{P_x}$
C
$\pi 2{P_x}$
D
${\pi ^*}2{P_y}$
Solution
The number of nodal planes are as follows
$\sigma 1 s \rightarrow 1$.
$\sigma 2 p _{x } \rightarrow 1$
$\pi 2 p _{ x } \rightarrow 1$
$\pi^* 2 p _{ y } \rightarrow 2$
