  2. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    In carbon monoxide, C≡O +, the bond order between carbon and oxygen is 3. In thiazyl trifluoride N≡SF 3, the bond order between sulfur and nitrogen is 3, and between sulfur and fluorine is 1. In diatomic oxygen O=O the bond order is 2 (double bond). In ethylene H 2 C=CH 2 the bond order between the two

  3. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_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 bond order of diatomic nitrogen is three, and it is a diamagnetic molecule. [12] The bond order for dinitrogen (1σ g 2 1σ u 2 2σ g 2 2σ u 2 1π u 4 3σ g 2) is three because two electrons are now ...

  4. Molecular orbital theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_theory

    Bond order is the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms. The bond order of a molecule can be calculated by subtracting the number of electrons in anti-bonding orbitals from the number of bonding orbitals, and the resulting number is then divided by two. A molecule is expected to be stable if it has bond order larger than zero.

  5. Born–Oppenheimer approximation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Born–Oppenheimer...

    In quantum chemistry and molecular physics, the Born–Oppenheimer (BO) approximation is the best-known mathematical approximation in molecular dynamics. Specifically, it is the assumption that the wave functions of atomic nuclei and electrons in a molecule can be treated separately, based on the fact that the nuclei are much heavier than the electrons.

  6. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    The bond-order formula at the bottom is closest to the reality of four equivalent oxygens each having a total bond order of 2. That total includes the bond of order ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ to the implied cation and follows the 8 N rule [ 7 ] requiring that the main-group atom's bond-order total equals 8 N valence electrons of the neutral atom ...

  7. Hückel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hückel_method

    The Hückel definition of bond order attempts to quantify any additional stabilization that the system enjoys resulting from delocalization. In a sense, the Hückel bond order suggests that there are four π-bonds in benzene instead of the three that are implied by the Kekulé-type Lewis structures.

  8. Orthoborate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orthoborate

    The orthoborate ion is known in the solid state, for example, in calcium orthoborate (Ca 2+) 3 ([BO 3] 3−) 2, [1] where it adopts a nearly trigonal planar structure. It is a structural analogue of the carbonate anion [CO 3] 2, with which it is isoelectronic. Simple bonding theories point to the trigonal planar structure.

  9. Three-center two-electron bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-center_two-electron_bond

    As a result, the molecule achieves stability since each B participates in a total of four bonds and all bonding molecular orbitals are filled, although two of the four bonds are 3-center BHB bonds. The reported bond order for each BH interaction in a bridge is 0.5, [2] so that the bridging BHB bonds are weaker and longer than the ...
