Certainly the orbital wavefunctions would be different for pi orbitals.

How can we distinguish a sigma from a pi?<BR/>Does anyone else know what I'm getting at and can ask a better question?Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17477076198940933752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3616408672620077758.post-63473918600750920322008-05-29T09:42:00.000-07:002008-05-29T09:42:00.000-07:00I'm sorry, I don't understand, your question is to...I'm sorry, I don't understand, your question is too vague.rodhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01176615884569486861noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3616408672620077758.post-64290364514327672302008-05-29T09:24:00.000-07:002008-05-29T09:24:00.000-07:00So how does it change with the different orbitals?...So how does it change with the different orbitals?
