1. Derive the following expression for the bonding and antibonding orbitals of a
heteronuclear diatomic molecule consisting of two electrons in a molecular orbital of
the form y = CAA + CBB with atomic orbitals A and B. Let aa=HAA, aB=HBB, B=HAB=HBA,
SAA-SBB=1, and, as a simplification, let SAB=SBA=S=0 (zero-overlap approximation). Note
that the assumption of SAB=SBA=S=0 is used simply to get a more transparent expression.
Show that the secular determinant is given by
