Question

A molecular orbital gives the electron probability distribution
around a group of nuclei in a molecule such as an atomic orbital
that gives the electron probability distribution around a nucleus
in an atom I didn't understand what does it mean?

Pushkar Shukla · Accepted Answer

In simple words, an atomic orbital is the location where
probability of finding electrons around a nucleus is maximum
A molecular orbital is formed due to overlap of 2 atomic
orbitals of the constituent atoms
So a molecular orbital is also a location where probability of
finding the electrons is maximum
