A) \[\sigma 1s\] and \[\sigma 2s\]
B) \[\pi 2{{p}_{x}}\] and \[\pi 2{{p}_{y}}\]
C) \[\pi 2{{p}_{x}}\]and \[\sigma 2{{p}_{z}}\]
D) \[\sigma 2{{p}_{x}}\]and \[\sigma 2{{p}_{z}}\]
Correct Answer: B
Solution :
Orbitals having nearly same energy are called degenerate orbitals. Among the given, \[\pi 2{{p}_{x}}\] and \[\pi 2{{p}_{y}}\] orbitals are of equivalent energy, thus are called degenerate orbitals.
