1. The total # of MOs = the # of AOs orbitals mixed.

2. Orbitals with similar energy/shape mix more effectively than do those of different energy/shape.

3. Orbitals of different n (different sizes/energies) result in less effective mixing.

4. A MO can accommodate two electrons.5. Electrons fill MO diagrams according to

Hund’s rule.
