1. Carbon monoxide is a toxic gas due to how it binds to the Fe in hemoglobin blocking the ability for oxygen to bind and be transported to cells in our body. Create an MO diagram for CO. After creating the diagram, label the HOMO and LUMO, and draw the specific orbital interactions for these two energy states.
