Title: Molecular Orbital Theory
Post by: yellowww on December 12, 2020, 09:29:34 AM

What is the MO electronic configuration of NO molecule. This(https://chem.libretexts.org/Bookshelves/General_Chemistry/Map%3A_General_Chemistry_(Petrucci_et_al.)/11%3A_Chemical_Bonding_II%3A_Additional_Aspects/11.5%3A_Molecular_Orbital_Theory) site mentions π2p orbital has lower energy than sigma2p however many other state the inverse. Which is the right one, eh?
