Molecular orbital diagram of dioxygen. Oxygen has a similar setup to H 2, but now we consider 2s and 2p orbitals. When creating the molecular orbitals from the p orbitals, the three atomic orbitals split into three molecular orbitals, a singly degenerate σ and a doubly degenerate π orbital.

The reactive oxygen ion superoxide is particularly important as the product of the one-electron reduction of dioxygen O 2, which occurs widely in nature. [2] Molecular oxygen (dioxygen) is a diradical containing two unpaired electrons, and superoxide results from the addition of an electron which fills one of the two degenerate molecular ...
Orbital diagram, after Barrett (2002), [33] showing the participating atomic orbitals from each oxygen atom, the molecular orbitals that result from their overlap, and the aufbau filling of the orbitals with the 12 electrons, 6 from each O atom, beginning from the lowest-energy orbitals, and resulting in covalent double-bond character from ...
In the ground state of dioxygen, this energy level is occupied by two electrons of the same spin, as shown in the molecular orbital diagram. The molecule, therefore, has two unpaired electrons and is in a triplet state. In contrast, the first and second excited states of dioxygen are both states of singlet oxygen. Each has two electrons of ...
A MO with δ symmetry results from the interaction of two atomic d xy or d x 2-y 2 orbitals. Because these molecular orbitals involve low-energy d atomic orbitals, they are seen in transition-metal complexes. A δ bonding orbital has two nodal planes containing the internuclear axis, and a δ* antibonding orbital also has a third nodal plane ...
[2] [3] The ground and first two singlet excited states of oxygen can be described by the simple scheme in the figure below. [7] [8] Molecular orbital diagram of two singlet excited states as well as the triplet ground state of molecular dioxygen. From left to right, the diagrams are for: 1 Δ g singlet oxygen (first excited state), 1 Σ +
In 1933, K. Bainbridge used mass spectrometry to compare the masses of the ions [4 He 1 H] + (helium hydride ion) and [2 H 2 1 H] + (twice-deuterated trihydrogen ion) in order to obtain an accurate measurement of the atomic mass of deuterium relative to that of helium. Both ions have 3 protons, 2 neutrons, and 2 electrons.
