  2. Network covalent bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_covalent_bonding

    Examples of network solids include diamond with a continuous network of carbon atoms and silicon dioxide or quartz with a continuous three-dimensional network of SiO 2 units. Graphite and the mica group of silicate minerals structurally consist of continuous two-dimensional sheets covalently bonded within the layer, with other bond types ...

  3. Intramolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intramolecular_force

    As the two atoms get closer and closer, the positively charged nuclei repel, creating a force that attempts to push the atoms apart. As the two atoms get further apart, attractive forces work to pull them back together. Thus an equilibrium bond length is achieved and is a good measure of bond stability.

  4. Molecular binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_binding

    Molecular binding is an attractive interaction between two molecules that results in a stable association in which the molecules are in close proximity to each other. It is formed when atoms or molecules bind together by sharing of electrons. It often, but not always, involves some chemical bonding.

  5. Spin–orbit interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spin–orbit_interaction

    The appropriate two-band effective Hamiltonian is + = + where is the 2 × 2 identity matrix, , the Pauli matrices and the electron effective mass. The spin–orbit part of the Hamiltonian, H R {\displaystyle H_{\text{R}}} is parametrized by α {\displaystyle \alpha } , sometimes called the Rashba parameter (its definition somewhat varies ...

  6. Bonding molecular orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_molecular_orbital

    The MO diagram for dihydrogen. In the classic example of the H 2 MO, the two separate H atoms have identical atomic orbitals. When creating the molecule dihydrogen, the individual valence orbitals, 1s, either: merge in phase to get bonding orbitals, where the electron density is in between the nuclei of the atoms; or, merge out of phase to get antibonding orbitals, where the electron density ...

  7. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    The electron density of these two bonding electrons in the region between the two atoms increases from the density of two non-interacting H atoms. Two p-orbitals forming a pi-bond. A double bond has two shared pairs of electrons, one in a sigma bond and one in a pi bond with electron density concentrated on two opposite sides of the ...

  8. Electronic properties of graphene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronic_properties_of...

    Two of the six Dirac points are independent, while the rest are equivalent by symmetry. In the vicinity of the K-points the energy depends linearly on the wave vector, similar to a relativistic particle. [4] [6] Since an elementary cell of the lattice has a basis of two atoms, the wave function has an effective 2-spinor structure.

  9. Double bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Double_bond

    Other common double bonds are found in azo compounds (N=N), imines (C=N), and sulfoxides (S=O). In a skeletal formula, a double bond is drawn as two parallel lines (=) between the two connected atoms; typographically, the equals sign is used for this. [1] [2] Double bonds were introduced in chemical notation by Russian chemist Alexander Butlerov.
