Problem 2: For two hydrogen atoms (A and B) the molecular bonding orbital is given by: and Y antibonding Y A [v+w)] bonding (a) If the two nuclei of these hydrogen atoms are separated by 74 pm, plot the electron density (mor) along the axis between the two nuclei for overlap of the 1s orbitals for 1. The bonding orbital 2. The antibonding orbital 3. The case when the electrons do not interact (just the square of the wavefunctions) (b) What does a comparison of the three plots suggest in light of covalent bonding, and how can you tell?
