The simplest ground-state VB wave function of a diatomic molecule like HCl is written as $\psi=\psi_{\mathrm{H}}(1 \mathrm{s}, 1) \psi_{\mathrm{Cl}}\left(3 \mathrm{p}_{\mathrm{z}}, 2\right)+\mathrm{B}$ where B stands for
(a)$\psi_{\mathrm{H}}\left(3 \mathrm{p}_{\mathrm{z}}, 2\right) \psi_{\mathrm{Cl}}(1 \mathrm{s}, 1)$
(b)$\psi_{\mathrm{H}}(1 \mathrm{s}, 2) \psi_{\mathrm{Cl}}\left(3 \mathrm{p}_{\mathrm{z}}, 1\right)$
(c)$\psi_{\mathrm{Cl}}(1 \mathrm{s}, 2) \psi_{\mathrm{Cl}}\left(3 \mathrm{p}_{\mathrm{z}}, 1\right)$
(d)$\psi_{\mathrm{Cl}}(1 \mathrm{s}, 2) \psi_{\mathrm{H}}\left(3 \mathrm{p}_{\mathrm{z}}, 1\right)$
