Question 1
If four orbitals on one atom combine with four orbitals on a second atom, how many molecular orbitals will form?
◦
1◦
4◦
8◦
16◦
None of these are correct.Question 2
In a molecule with one or more lone pairs of electrons, the bond angles will be
◦
unaffected by the lone pair(s) of electrons.◦
larger than they would be in a molecule with no lone pairs.◦
smaller than they would be in a molecule with no lone pairs.◦
unaffected if there is only one lone pair, but smaller if there are two or more lone pairs.◦
affected, but they could be either larger or smaller.
