Question:

Call the ethylene symmetry orbitals in Table 15.4 g1 to g14, in order. For each of the eight canonical ethylene MOs occupied in the ground state, decide, as best you can, which symmetry orbitals will make major contributions; give the sign of each such symmetry orbital in the MO expression. Sketch the canonical MOs. Assume an orthogonalized 2s orbital is used.
