1. Consider a pair of elements with 2p and 4p valence orbitals (e.g., N and Se). Draw their (2p and 4p AO's) radial probability plots, and sketch their angular profiles. Then, consider these orbitals from the two atoms forming a homonuclear л-bond. Which element would have a stronger bond, and why? (4 points)
