Our 2nd Annual Scheuermann's Disease Fundraiser on the afternoon of Sunday October 4th has now been posted to the VisitPitsburgh website. ... VisitPittsburgh is a website designed to help people plan their next visit to Pittsburgh, PA.
An antibonding orbital is a molecular orbital containing an electron outside the region between the two nuclei. As two atoms approach each other, their electron orbitals begin to overlap. This overlap forms a molecular bond between the two atoms with its own molecular orbital shape.
Atomic orbitals: 1 s. The shape of the 1 s orbital. For any atom there is just one 1 s orbital. Consider the shape on the left. The surface of the shape represents points for which the electron density for that orbital is the same-an isosurface. The image shows clearly the spherical shape of the 1 s function. The orbital on the right is sliced in half to show that there is no spherical node in the 1 s orbital.
