Sigma anti bonding is the correct answer.
Explanation:
In anti bonding orbitals, electron density between nuclei is low. Thus they experience higher nuclear repulsion. So their energy increases. Bonding orbitals are lower in energy than antibonding orbitals since the former one have higher electron density around nuclei than later one.
Sigma bond is strong enough since they are formed by head to head overlap. So we need high energy to break them. So they are higher in energy than pi bonds since pi bonds are formed by side by side overlap which is easy to break.
So sigma antibonding orbitals would be the highest energy level.
Which type of orbital would be at the highest energy level? sigma bonding pi bonding pi...

The molecular orbital diagrams of hydrogen and helium can tell us a lot about how these elements interact and behave. The MO diagram for H2 is below. Before bonding, each neutral hydrogen atom contains one electron in a 1s orbital. The in-phase overlap of these orbitals generates Select a sigma bonding orbital that is lower in energy than an H 1s orbital a sigma bonding orbital that is higher in energy than an H 1s orbital a pi bonding orbital...
