Which of the following combination does not form molecular orbitals?
S + S
Px + Py
Px + Px
Pz + Pz
Condition for the combination of atomic orbitals -
The combining atomic orbital must have symmetry about the molecular axis.
2Pz of one atom can combine with 2Pz of another atom but not with 2Px or 2Py orbitals.
As the two orbitals do not have the proper orientation to overlap with each other.
