Which outcome occurs when a molecule near absolute zero experiences van der Waals interactions influencing electron orbitals?

A)Orbital hybridization and bond alteration
B)Increased nuclear fusion probability
C)Orbital collapse to ground state
D)Diamagnetic to paramagnetic transition

💡 Explanation

Orbital hybridization and bond alteration result because van der Waals forces induce transient changes in intramolecular charge distribution; therefore, hybrid orbitals adjust geometry rather than causing fusion or magnetic change because polarization governs rather than thermodynamic instability.
