Combining atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals

The following interactive activity was produced by the University of Oxford's Technology-Assisted Lifelong Learning (TALL) unit (www.tall.ox.ac.uk).

This activity includes a Lab Mode and a Test Mode. Use the lab mode to explore how the s and p orbitals on two atoms combine to form molecular orbitals. Then try the multiple choice quiz to see whether you understand the principles involved.
