Which outcome occurs when two atoms approach with unfavorable orbital symmetries?

💡 Explanation

Antibonding orbitals increase instability because electron density cancellation via destructive interference occurs between the atomic orbitals leads to repulsive forces, therefore raising the system's energy, rather than facilitating lower-energy bonding orbitals.
