The variational theorem guarantees that the lowest value of that gives rise to a nontrivial (that is, not all zero) solution vector (,, …,) represents the best LCAO approximation of the energy of the most stable π orbital; higher values of with nontrivial solution vectors represent reasonable estimates of the energies of the remaining π ...
The off-diagonal Hamiltonian matrix elements are given by an approximation due to Wolfsberg and Helmholz that relates them to the diagonal elements and the overlap matrix element. [2] = + K is the Wolfsberg–Helmholz constant, and is usually given a value of 1.75. In the extended Hückel method, only valence electrons are considered; the core ...
For table salt in 0.01 M solution at 25 °C, a typical value of () is 0.0005636, while a typical value of is 7.017, highlighting the fact that, in low concentrations, () is a target for a zero order of magnitude approximation such as perturbation analysis. Unfortunately, because of the boundary condition at infinity, regular perturbation does ...
This is still used occasionally as an approximation, though the more precise PPP Pariser–Parr–Pople method succeeded it in 1953. "Extended Hückel MO theory" ( EHT ) applies to both sigma and pi electrons, and has its origins in work by William Lipscomb and Roald Hoffmann for nonplanar molecules in 1962.
Substituting this length scale into the Debye–Hückel equation and neglecting the second and third terms on the right side yields the much simplified form () = ().As the only characteristic length scale in the Debye–Hückel equation, sets the scale for variations in the potential and in the concentrations of charged species.
For Möbius systems there is an odd number of plus–minus sign inversions in the basis set in proceeding around the cycle. A circle mnemonic [3] was advanced which provides the MO energies of the system; this was the counterpart of the Frost–Musulin mnemonic [6] for ordinary Hückel systems.
In the Thomas–Fermi approximation, [4] named after Llewellyn Thomas and Enrico Fermi, the system is maintained at a constant electron chemical potential (Fermi level) and at low temperature. The former condition corresponds, in a real experiment, to keeping the metal/fluid in electrical contact with a fixed potential difference with ground .
Benzene, the most widely recognized aromatic compound with six delocalized π-electrons (4n + 2, for n = 1).. In organic chemistry, Hückel's rule predicts that a planar ring molecule will have aromatic properties if it has 4n + 2 π-electrons, where n is a non-negative integer.
