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.
In quantum mechanics, the behavior of an electron in an atom is described by an orbital, which is a probability distribution rather than an orbit. In the figure, the shading indicates the relative probability to find the electron, having the energy corresponding to the given quantum numbers, at that point.
