  2. VSEPR theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/VSEPR_theory

    Example of bent electron arrangement (water molecule). Shows location of unpaired electrons, bonded atoms, and bond angles. The bond angle for water is 104.5°. Valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory (/ ˈ v ɛ s p ər, v ə ˈ s ɛ p ər / VESP-ər, [1]: 410 və-SEP-ər [2]) is a model used in chemistry to predict the geometry of ...

  3. Walsh diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walsh_diagram

    For the simplest AH 2 molecular system, Walsh produced the first angular correlation diagram by plotting the ab initio orbital energy curves for the canonical molecular orbitals while changing the bond angle from 90° to 180°. As the bond angle is distorted, the energy for each of the orbitals can be followed along the lines, allowing a quick ...

  4. Molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_geometry

    Molecular geometries can be specified in terms of 'bond lengths', 'bond angles' and 'torsional angles'. The bond length is defined to be the average distance between the nuclei of two atoms bonded together in any given molecule. A bond angle is the angle formed between three atoms across at least two bonds.

  5. Phosgene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phosgene

    The reaction of an organic substrate with phosgene is called phosgenation. [9] Phosgenation of diols give carbonates (R = H, alkyl, aryl), which can be either linear or cyclic: n HO−CR 2 −X−CR 2 −OH + n COCl 2 → [−O−CR 2 −X−CR 2 −O−C(=O)−] n + 2n HCl. An example is the reaction of phosgene with bisphenol A to form ...

  6. Cobalt(II) chloride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cobalt(II)_chloride

    2 O Co(OH) 2 + 2 HCl (aq) → CoCl 2 (aq) + 2 H 2 O. The solid dihydrate and hexahydrate can be obtained by evaporation. Cooling saturated aqueous solutions yields the dihydrate between 120.2 °C and 51.25 °C, and the hexahydrate below 51.25 °C. Water ice, rather than cobalt chloride, will crystallize from solutions with concentration below 29%.

  7. Disulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disulfide

    The disulfide bond is about 2.05 Å in length, about 0.5 Å longer than a C−C bond. Rotation about the S−S axis is subject to a low barrier. Disulfides show a distinct preference for dihedral angles approaching 90°. When the angle approaches 0° or 180°, then the disulfide is a significantly better oxidant.

  8. Hydrogen disulfide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_disulfide

    The structure of hydrogen disulfide is similar to that of hydrogen peroxide, with C 2 point group symmetry. Both molecules are distinctly nonplanar. The dihedral angle between the H a −S−S and S−S−H b planes is 90.6°, compared with 111.5° in H 2 O 2. The H−S−S bond angle is 92°, close to 90° for unhybridized divalent sulfur. [1]

  9. Constraint (computational chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Constraint_(computational...

    The method was then generalised to handle any holonomic constraint, such as those required to maintain constant bond angles, or molecular rigidity. [ 11 ] In SHAKE algorithm, the system of non-linear constraint equations is solved using the Gauss–Seidel method which approximates the solution of the linear system of equations using the Newton ...
