← ScienceWhich outcome occurs when hybridized orbitals overlap constructively?
A)Enhanced covalent bond formation✓
B)Increased nuclear fission probability
C)Reduced van der Waals repulsion
D)Decreased electron tunneling rate
💡 Explanation
Enhanced covalent bond formation results because constructive interference during **orbital hybridization** increases electron density between nuclei, therefore strengthening the bond rather than inducing fission; repulsion decreases due to stabilization.
