What is the difference between bonding and anti bonding molecular orbital?
Electrons in a bonding orbital have lower energy levels than the average energy of a valence electrons in the isolated atoms between which the orbital is formed. Antibonding orbitals do not meet this criterion, so that anitbonding orbitals can be stable only in conjunction with bonding orbitals, whereas bonding orbitals can be formed without any accompanying antibonding orbitals.The molecular orbitals which is formed by the addition of atomic orbitals is called bonding molecular orbitals.The molecular orbitals which is formed by the subtraction of atomic orbitals is called antibonding molecular orbitals.
Why non bonding orbitals do not participate in LCAO?
The question does not make sense. LCAO takes a linear combination of atomic orbitals from the atoms, some orbitals are not energetically favourable to produce bonds (*other exclusions are symmetry) and these do not form bonding orbitals.
What is the orientation of orbitals in bonding?
the orientation of orbitals that form a chemical bond are orbitals on the atoms involved that point at each other.
A new set of identical orbitals formed by combining the atomic orbitals of an atom involved in covalent bonding?
hybrid orbital
How many bonding orbitals are in AsH3?
3 because that is the number of bonds it has already

What are orbitals with the same energy are said to be?
I suspect the word you're looking for is "degenerate."
