In the formation of $\mathrm{H}_{2}$ molecules from 2 H atoms placed at positions A and B , and separated by a distance $r_{AB}$, a part of special wavefunction is
\[ \phi_{A}(1) \phi_{A}(2)+\phi_{B}(1) \phi_{B}(2) \]
(a)This is a covalent term and is important as $r_{AB} \rightarrow \infty$
(b)This is a ionic term and is important as $r_{AB} \rightarrow \infty$
(c)This is a covalent term and is important as $r_{AB} \rightarrow 0$
(d)This is a ionic term and is important as $r_{AB} \rightarrow 0$
