In the Li2 example, how did we start with 4 atomic orbitals and end with 3 molecular orbitals? I thought we had to end up with the same number we started with... Also, shouldn't the sigma antibonding 1s orbital be higher in energy than the sigma 2s bonding orbital?
Videos are good; But if i wanted a long lecture on the subject I would have gone to class in the first place. It'd be great if the whole "Molecular Orbital model" series was condensed to one or two videos. Still Helpful
You should teach professors how to teach!

You should get a whiteboard.

@lamaalzuhd we get 4, but only 3 are occupied. And no, 2s is further away from the nucleus

Lol he drew the periodic table and was like "Let us confront what we can already see from the periodic table." lmao i love this guy!

For the MO diagram don't u only use the valence electron or do u use all the electrons in both atoms that are bonding?, it's a bit confusing

@msdipabegum All electrons from all molecules are used.

@TaIk2Kevin i like the series of videos, i think it would be more confusing if it was condensed

I think you need to teach my professor how to do molecular orbitals.
