Which consequence results when wave functions of two antibonding orbitals constructively interfere?

💡 Explanation

Nodal plane formation causes destabilization because the **linear combination of atomic orbitals** results in destructive interference in the region between the nuclei, therefore raising the system’s energy rather than contributing to bonding as bonding orbitals would have.
