Concept introduction:
The atomic orbitals of similar size and energy overlap to form molecular orbitals. The addition of two atomic orbitals results in the formation of a continuous orbital which is known as bonding orbital and subtraction of two atomic orbitals results in the formation of anti-bonding molecular orbital. These two orbitals have different energies. The diagram representing the orbital energies is known as orbital interaction diagram.
