Linear triatomic molecules owe their geometry to their sp or sp 3 d hybridised central atoms. Well-known linear triatomic molecules include carbon dioxide (CO 2) and hydrogen cyanide (HCN). Xenon difluoride (XeF 2) is one of the rare examples of a linear triatomic molecule possessing non-bonded pairs of electrons on the central atom.

Linear organic molecules, such as acetylene (HC≡CH), are often described by invoking sp orbital hybridization for their carbon centers. Two sp orbitals. According to the VSEPR model (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion model), linear geometry occurs at central atoms with two bonded atoms and zero or three lone pairs (AX 2 or AX 2 E 3) in ...
Triatomic hydrogen or H 3 is an unstable triatomic molecule containing only hydrogen. Since this molecule contains only three atoms of hydrogen it is the simplest triatomic molecule [ 1 ] and it is relatively simple to numerically solve the quantum mechanics description of the particles.
Hydrogen isocyanide (HNC) is a linear triatomic molecule with C ∞v point group symmetry.It is a zwitterion and an isomer of hydrogen cyanide (HCN). [2] Both HNC and HCN have large, similar dipole moments, with μ HNC = 3.05 Debye and μ HCN = 2.98 Debye respectively. [3]
A molecular orbital diagram, or MO diagram, is a qualitative descriptive tool explaining chemical bonding in molecules in terms of molecular orbital theory in general and the linear combination of atomic orbitals (LCAO) method in particular.
Mercuric chloride exists not as a salt composed of discrete ions, but rather is composed of linear triatomic molecules, hence its tendency to sublime. In the crystal, each mercury atom is bonded to two chloride ligands with Hg–Cl distance of 2.38 Å; six more chlorides are more distant at 3.38 Å. [3]
For a linear triatomic molecule such as CO 2, there are only 5 degrees of freedom (3 translations and 2 rotations), assuming vibrational modes are not excited. However, as mass increases and the frequency of vibrational modes decreases, vibrational degrees of freedom start to enter into the equation at far lower temperatures than is typically ...
