In the application of molecular orbital theory to homonuclear diatomic molecules and ions,__________
A) the number of MOs can exceed the number of AOs used to create them.
B) AOs of dissimilar energy mix to form bonding MOs with a greater degree of stabilization.
C) a MO can hold more than two electrons because it can extend over multiple atoms.
D) inner shell electrons contribute significantly to bonding MOs.
