He-He bond
antibonding
b dbonding
Two He atoms have four electrons. When He atoms come together, two of the electrons enter the E level and two the E* level, so the overall energy is greater than two isolated He
atoms (since |Eantibonding|>>|Ebonding|).Therefore, He-He does not exist!

Key Concepts
1 Th b f l l bi l ill b l h 1. The number of molecular orbitals will be equal to the number of atomic orbitals
2. The Pauli exclusion principle limits the number of electrons that can occupy any molecular orbital to two. Those electrons must be pairedThose electrons must be paired.
3. Three types of molecular orbitals: bonding, ib di d b diantibonding, and nonbonding
Nonbonding: a MO that neither raises nor lowers the energy of the system. Typically, it consists of a single gy y yp y gorbital on one atom (possibly because there is no atomic orbital of the correct symmetry for it to overlap on a neighboring atom) on a neighboring atom)

MOs with ‘s’ and ‘p’ atomic orbitals
σ orbitals are formed by allowing overlap between atomic orbitals that have cylindrical symmetry around the internuclear axis (z).
![Page 23: Lecture 4 - Stanford Universitydionne.stanford.edu/MatSci202_2011/Lecture4_ppt.pdf1954 Nobel Prize: Linus Pauling 1986 1927-1963 1969-1975](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022041119/5f313a1902cd5540fd316f5a/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
σ Orbitals
σ orbitals of homonuclear diatomic molecules are labeled “gerade” (“even”) or “ungerade” (“odd”) depending on their inversion symmetry.

π Orbitals
Two p orbitals can overlap to form a π orbital. The orbital has a nodal plane passing through the internuclear axis.
