Which is true about valence bond theory? Select the correct answer below:   Describes how the direction of overlap of s orbitals influences bond energy.   Describes how two atoms can never overlap and share electrons.   Describes how s orbitals are dumbbell shaped, they can only overlap end to end.   Describes how the overlap of half-filled atomic orbitals yields a pair of shared electrons.

Which 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.
