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.
