Main energy levels?
Quantum numbers specify the properties of atomic orbitals and the properties of electrons in orbitals. The first three quantum numbers result from solutions to the Schrodinger equation. They indicate the main energy levels, the shape, and the orientation of an orbital.-source: "Modern Chemistry" text book Pg.107
What bond forms when two atomic or hybrid orbitals overlap to form a single bond?
This is the basis of Organic Chemistry. An sp3 hybrid orbital can overlap with another and the result is a COVALENT bond
Rust is formed as a result of oxidation of which metal?
Rust is formed as a result of oxidation of iron (Fe) metal.
Why is gold nonreactive?
It is a result of its dense atomic structure.
What do two hydrogen atoms bonded together form?
A hydrogen bond is the attractive interaction of a hydrogen atom with an electronegative.When two hydrogen atoms come together to form the hydrogen molecule, the atomic s orbitals of each atom are combined to form two molecular orbitals. One of these new orbitals is the result of the addition of the two atomic orbitals, while the other is created by a subtraction of these orbitals. In the addition, a reinforcement of the wave function occurs in the region between the two nuclei. Physically, this means the electron density increases in the area between the two nuclei. This increase in electron density causes a corresponding increase in the attraction of each positively charged nucleus for the negatively charged overlap region. It is this increased attraction that holds the hydrogen molecule together and creates the bonding molecular orbital. Because the bonding molecular orbital is generated from atomic s orbitals, it is called a σ (sigma) bonding molecular orbital.
When Sigma bonds are formed as a result of the overlapping of which type of atomic orbital?
s and p
The result of two or more waves overlapping?
The correct answer is ''Interference"

What is the result of two or more waves overlapping each other?
There will be either constructive or destructive interference.
What is sp2 hybridisation?
Hybridization in brief can be said as inter mixing of orbitals. But you may have questions such as why? where ? when it happens and what exactly it is? Its very simple for example as in your question consider methane. The carbon atom has 2 electrons in 1s orbital and; 2 electrons in 2s orbital and; 1 electron in 2px orbital and; 1 electron in 2py orbital.In methane before carbon atom undergo bonding with hydrogen it undergoes hybridization ,that is 2s orbitals and 2p orbitals combines or hybridizes and for methane it is sp3 hybridization that means an s orbital had combined with 3 of the 2p orbitals (2px,2py,2pz). It has an tetrahedral arrangement (like four corners of a triangular pyramid) of four lobes of angles approx 109.5 degrees(The angle between H-C-H). After hybridization you cannot differentiate s orbital and p orbital.And in that sp3 hybrid each lobe has one electron and all the lobes bond with hydrogen atoms containing single electron.Note that all the lobes must be treated as an orbital such that they can maximum hold only of two electrons.Thus methane is formed as an result of head on collision of sp3 hybrids and hydrogen atoms.
What is formed as the result of inadequate carbohydrate consumption?
Ketones are formed as a result of inadequate carbohydrate consumption.
What compounds are formed as a result of?
These compounds are called products of the reaction.
What means p bond?
A p bond is the result of the sideways overlap of two parallel p orbitals.
