Consider following statements.
(a) He2\mathrm{He}_2 molecule does not exist.
(b) Energy of σ2pz\sigma 2 p_z molecular orbital is always higher than that of π2px\pi 2 p_x and π2py\pi 2 p_y molecular orbital.
(c) The formation of molecular orbitals may be described by linear combination of atomic orbitals.
The correct statement(s) is/are
View answer and explanation
Correct option: B
(a) and (c) only
Option B ((a) and (c) only) is correct because He2 molecule does not exist due to zero bond order, and molecular orbitals are formed by linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO).
