  2. Bent's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent's_rule

    Bent's rule addresses disparities between the observed and idealized geometries. [3] According to Bent's rule, a central atom bonded to multiple groups will rehybridize so that orbitals with more s character are directed towards electropositive groups, and orbitals with more p character will be directed towards groups that are more electronegative.

    The Lennard-Jones Potential is a mathematically simple model for the interaction between a pair of atoms or molecules. [3] [4] One of the most common forms is = [() ()] where ε is the depth of the potential well, σ is the finite distance at which the inter-particle potential is zero, r is the distance between the particles.

  4. Walsh diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walsh_diagram

    Walsh Diagram of an HAH molecule. Walsh diagrams, often called angular coordinate diagrams or correlation diagrams, are representations of calculated orbital binding energies of a molecule versus a distortion coordinate (bond angles), used for making quick predictions about the geometries of small molecules.

    On the other hand, there are only three outer atoms. This is referred to as an AX 3 E type molecule because the lone pair is represented by an E. [1]: 410–417 By definition, the molecular shape or geometry describes the geometric arrangement of the atomic nuclei only, which is trigonal-pyramidal for NH 3. [1]: 410–417

  6. Bent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bent_bond

    One of the first bent bond theories for cyclopropane was the Coulson-Moffitt model (1947).. In organic chemistry, a bent bond, also known as a banana bond, is a type of covalent chemical bond with a geometry somewhat reminiscent of a banana.

    2 O) is a simple triatomic bent molecule with C 2v molecular symmetry and bond angle of 104.5° between the central oxygen atom and the hydrogen atoms. Despite being one of the simplest triatomic molecules , its chemical bonding scheme is nonetheless complex as many of its bonding properties such as bond angle , ionization energy , and ...

  8. Wrench - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wrench

    A set of metric spanners or wrenches, open at one end and box/ring at the other. These are commonly known as “combination” spanners. A wrench or spanner is a tool used to provide grip and mechanical advantage in applying torque to turn objects—usually rotary fasteners, such as nuts and bolts—or keep them from turning.

  9. Proto (tools) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Proto_(tools)

    In 1933, Plomb released what is commonly credited as the first combination wrench. [1] Plomb acquired a number of companies during the 1940s, including Cragin Tool of Chicago, Illinois in 1940, P&C Tool of Oregon in 1941, Penens Tool of Cleveland, Ohio in 1942, and J.P. Danielson of Jamestown, New York in 1947. [2]
