If the two atomic orbitals represented below combine in phase in the orientation shown, which of the following statements is true?
Choose one or more:
The molecular orbital that results will be a bonding orbital. Removing an electron from the resulting orbital will decrease bond order. The molecular orbital that results will be an antibonding orbital. Removing an electron from the resulting orbital will increase bond order. The molecular orbital that results will have pi symmetry. The molecular orbital that results will have sigma symmetry.
