Choose only 1. carbon dioxide: Polar nonpolar Circle the correct answer! Choose only 1.water: polar nonpolararrow_forwardOne of the following questions is true; the rest are false. Please identify the true statement in the enumeration below. 1. Tetrahedral molecules are more stable than other molecular geometries. 2. Lone pairs are an exception to the rules for Lewis dot structures. 3. A double bond consists of two sigma bonds. 4. Hybridization of atomic orbitals is required to explain molecular geometry. 5. None of the Abovarrow_forwardWhich statement is true about antibonding molecular orbitals? All of these are true. Antibonding orbitals form by subtracting (canceling) one another where they overlap. Placing electrons in an antibonding orbital reduces the bond order. It requires less energy to remove an electron from an antibonding orbital compared with removing an electron from the atomic orbital from which the anitbonding orbital forms. Only A and B ate true.arrow_forward
