to form new molecular orbitals, how many molecular orbitals will be
formed?

their orbital diagrams before and after hybridization, determine
what hybrid orbitals are formed in the molecule, and label the
bonds in the lewis structure as sigma or pi bonds

Illustrate the orbital overlap between the bonding electrons in
water.
Which two orbitals overlap when a chlorine atom and an iodine
atom overlap to form a covalent bond? Draw an illustration of the
orbital overlap. Are the bonding electrons shared equally between
the two atoms? Explain your reasoning.
Draw the orbital overlap diagram for bicarbonate CH2NH and give
perspective on the bonds using dashes and wedges. I am unsure on
how to use dashes and wedges.. how can you tell how far a bond
is?
After thoroughly reviewing atomic orbital theory and molecular
orbital theory, respond to the following:
Explain how atomic orbitals interact and give rise to molecular
orbitals.
