← ScienceWhich consequence occurs when a molecular orbital's energy level lowers?
A)Increased bonding between atoms✓
B)Decreased molecular ionization potential
C)Reduced vibrational mode frequency
D)Enhanced molecular dipole repulsion
💡 Explanation
Lower energy in a molecular orbital indicates greater stabilization, because electron density is concentrated between the nuclei, thus promoting stronger bonding; therefore increased bonding is observed, rather than other energetic changes.
