    Structure data for YB 41 Si 1.2a[4] a The number n in the atom designation B n,n refers to the B 12 - n th icosahedron to which the B n,n belongs. Si6. n and B6. n belong to the B 12 Si 3 unit. b,c,d The Si and B sites are in the same interstice, which is assumed to be fully occupied by both Si and B atoms with occupancies of Occ. (Si) and Occ ...

  3. Electron configuration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electron_configuration

    Electron configuration. In atomic physics and quantum chemistry, the electron configuration is the distribution of electrons of an atom or molecule (or other physical structure) in atomic or molecular orbitals. [1] For example, the electron configuration of the neon atom is 1s2 2s2 2p6, meaning that the 1s, 2s, and 2p subshells are occupied by ...

    The other sp-hybrid radiates into the center of the structure forming a large bonding molecular orbital at the center of the cluster. The remaining two unhybridized orbitals lie along the tangent of the sphere like structure creating more bonding and antibonding orbitals between the boron vertices. [9] The orbital diagram breaks down as follows:

  5. Boron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron

    Boron is a component of neodymium magnets (Nd 2 Fe 14 B), which are among the strongest type of permanent magnet. These magnets are found in a variety of electromechanical and electronic devices, such as magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) medical imaging systems, in compact and relatively small motors and actuators.

  6. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    The possible orbital symmetries are listed in the table below. For example, an orbital of B 1 symmetry (called a b 1 orbital with a small b since it is a one-electron function) is multiplied by -1 under the symmetry operations C 2 (rotation about the 2-fold rotation axis) and σ v '(yz) (reflection in the molecular

  7. Boron compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Boron_compounds

    Boranes are chemical compounds of boron and hydrogen, with the generic formula of B x H y. These compounds do not occur in nature. Many of the boranes readily oxidise on contact with air, some violently. The parent member BH 3 is called borane, but it is known only in the gaseous state, and dimerises to form diborane, B 2 H 6.

  8. Spectroscopic notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopic_notation

    This notation is used to specify electron configurations and to create the term symbol for the electron states in a multi-electron atom. When writing a term symbol, the above scheme for a single electron's orbital quantum number is applied to the total orbital angular momentum associated to an electron state. [4]

  9. Atomic orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_orbital

    To see the elongated shape of ψ (x, y, z)2 functions that show probability density more directly, see pictures of d-orbitals below. In quantum mechanics, an atomic orbital (/ ˈɔːrbɪtəl /) is a function describing the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. [1] This function describes an electron's charge distribution ...
