. Comprehension Type Problems .

Passage : The molecular orbital with the lowest energy is filled first. Thus (1s) is filled first whereas
* (2p) is filled in the last, also the maximum number of electron in bonding and antibonding
molecular orbitals are according to Pauli and Hunds rule. As an electron in an antibonding
molecular orbital cancels out the stability introduced by the electron in a bonding molecular orbital,
it means that in order for bonding of atoms to occur there should be an excess of bonding electrons
over antibonding electrons. In case where the number of bonding and antibonding electrons are
equal, no bond will be formed between the atoms. With the help of above discussion, we can define
easily bond order, relative bond length, relative stability and magnetic properties for a molecule.
