What would be the bond order for He 2 2- molecule

Sagot :

Answer:

In He2 molecule,

Atomic orbitals available for making Molecular Orbitals are 1s from each Helium. And total number of electrons available are 4.

Molecular Orbitals thus formed are:€1s2€*1s2

It means 2 electrons are in bonding molecular orbitals and 2 are in antibonding molecular orbitals .

Bond Order =Electrons in bonding molecular orbitals - electrons in antibonding molecular orbitals /2

Bond Order =Nb-Na/2

Bond Order =2-2/2=0

Since the bond order is zero so that He2 molecule does not exist.
