Among the following linear combination of atomic orbitals, the CORRECT representation of the lowest unoccupied $\pi$-molecular orbital of butadiene is:
(a)$\Psi = 0.602\phi_1 - 0.372\phi_2 - 0.372\phi_3 + 0.602\phi_4$
(b)$\Psi = -0.372\phi_1 + 0.602\phi_2 - 0.602\phi_3 + 0.372\phi_4$
(c)$\Psi = 0.602\phi_1 + 0.372\phi_2 - 0.372\phi_3 - 0.602\phi_4$
(d)$\Psi = 0.372\phi_1 + 0.602\phi_2 + 0.602\phi_3 + 0.372\phi_4$
