Molecular orbital diagram of dinitrogen. With nitrogen, we see the two molecular orbitals mixing and the energy repulsion. This is the reasoning for the rearrangement from a more familiar diagram. The σ from the 2p is more non-bonding due to mixing, and same with the 2s σ. This also causes a large jump in energy in the 2p σ* orbital.
The qualitative approach of MO analysis uses a molecular orbital diagram to visualize bonding interactions in a molecule. In this type of diagram, the molecular orbitals are represented by horizontal lines; the higher a line the higher the energy of the orbital, and degenerate orbitals are placed on the same level with a space between them.
Added orbital diagrams for molecular orbitals. 16:49, 21 May 2015: 2,020 × 1,070 (138 KB) Officer781: 2pz MO in wrong orientation relative to the other orbitals per the LCAO notation. 16:40, 21 May 2015: 2,020 × 1,070 (138 KB) Officer781: Moved 2s orbital higher in energy as that MO has more hydrogen admixture.
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 ...
The molecular orbital diagram for the final state describes the electronic nature of the molecule in an excited state. Although in MO theory some molecular orbitals may hold electrons that are more localized between specific pairs of molecular atoms, other orbitals may hold electrons that are spread more uniformly over the molecule.
This lists the character tables for the more common molecular point groups used in the study of molecular symmetry. These tables are based on the group-theoretical treatment of the symmetry operations present in common molecules, and are useful in molecular spectroscopy and quantum chemistry. Information regarding the use of the tables, as well ...
Molecular geometry is determined by the quantum mechanical behavior of the electrons. Using the valence bond approximation this can be understood by the type of bonds between the atoms that make up the molecule. When atoms interact to form a chemical bond, the atomic orbitals of each atom are said to combine in a process called orbital ...
The template takes a single optional parameter—a description of what the image should illustrate. Adds page to Category:Wikipedia requested orbital diagrams. If you are requesting a technical illustration (e.g. a graph), please provide as much reference data as possible.
