Question 27

Multiple Choice

A MO orbital for a heteronuclear diatomic is given by Ψmobonding =CAφA+CBφB\Psi_{\mathrm{mo}}^{\text {bonding }}=\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{A}} \varphi^{\mathrm{A}}+\mathrm{C}_{\mathrm{B}} \varphi^{\mathrm{B}} If A is more electronegative than B then you would predict that


A) CA > CB
B) CA = CB
C) CA < CB
D) CA = -CB
E) you would not expect any relation between these coefficients and the electronegativity of the elements A & B
