The highest energy occupied molecular orbital in the C-C bond of the C₂ molecule is 2pπ orbitals.
<h3>What is Molecular Orbital Theory?</h3>
According to this theory,
- Molecular orbitals are formed by intermixing of atomic orbitals of two or more atoms having comparable energies
- The number of molecular orbitals formed is equal to the number of atomic orbitals combined.
- The shape of molecular orbitals formed depends on the type of atomic orbitals combined
- Only atomic orbitals having comparable energies and the same orientation can intermix
- Bonding M.O. is formed by the additive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has lower energy and high stability.
- Antibonding M.O. is formed by the subtractive effect of atomic orbitals and thus, has higher energy and low stability.
- Bonding M.O. is represented by while Antibonding M.O. is represented by

Since none answered from Indian NCERT yet, let me give a simple definition from ICSE..
Latent Heat of vapourisation is the heat energy required to convert unit mass of a substance from liquid to vapour state WITHOUT ANY CHANGE IN ITS TEMPERATURE....
hope this helps!
Answer:
Electrons
Explanation:
The electrons of the outermost energy level determine the energetic stability of the atom and its tendency to form chemical bonds with other atoms to form molecules. Under standard conditions, atoms fill the inner shells first, often resulting in a variable number of electrons in the outermost shell.
Answer:
Carbon (C)
Explanation:
Carbon is the only nonmetal there and covalent bonds happen between two nonmetal atoms
