  1. Two interacting orbitals make two new orbitals. Using a 1s orbital on two H atoms: Molecular Orbitals anitbonding orbital = higher energy bonding orbital = lower energy

  2. Atomic orbitals on the sides; molecular orbitals inside. MO Diagrams: H and He molecules

  3. Atomic orbitals on the sides; molecular orbitals inside. MO Diagrams

  4. Two interacting orbitals make two new orbitals. Using a 1s orbital on two H atoms: MOs involving p orbitals sigma orientation = pointing at each other pi orientation = pointing side-by-side
