Which outcome destabilizes a coordination complex when antibonding orbitals become populated?

💡 Explanation

A coordination complex is destabilized because populating antibonding orbitals reduces the effective overlap; this lowers the overall metal-ligand bond order, which weakens the interaction and reduces stability, rather than strengthening the bond interaction or increasing the complex stability.
