WEBSep 12, 2022 · A dihydrogen molecule (H 2) forms from two hydrogen atoms. When the atomic orbitals of the two atoms combine, the electrons occupy the molecular orbital of lowest energy, the σ 1s bonding orbital. A dihydrogen molecule, H 2, readily forms because the energy of a H 2 molecule is lower than that of two H atoms.
