Molecular Orbitals - Bonding and Antibonding

In this video we will discuss what happens to the orbitals of hydrogen atoms when they form a bond to make a hydrogen molecule, what in-phase and out-of-phase means as well as drawing the energy diagram of a diatonic molecule.

Please note I have terrible habit of referring to hydrogen atoms as protons. Protons, in chemical schemes, are depicted as H+ - a hydrogen atom that has lost an electron. Out of habit, I often call any H and proton, so remember that if it still has electrons, it's called a hydrogen!!
