Question:

Show that the eigenstates of (1.11.7) are those given in (1.11.8). To do this, you will need to first find the eigenvectors of (1.11.7) in terms of the eight sp3 states, then use (1.11.3) to write these in terms of the original atomic states. Finally, show that the degenerate eigenstates involving p-orbitals can be written as linear combinations of the states given in (1.11.8).
