-
Bonding
overlap or orbitals on 2 atoms to form a molecular orbital
-
Orbital
Describes the region where electrons are likely to be (95%)
-
Sigma bond
First bond, symmetrical with respect to rotation along bond axis
-
Pi bond
Second and third bonds, not symmetrical with respect to rotation along bond axis
-
MO Theory
Form molecular orbitals by making linear combination of atomic orbitals
-
How many molecular orbitals per atomic orbital
1
-
Bonding orbital
high electron density between nuclei
-
Antibonding orbital
Low electron density between nuclei-contains node
-
How many electrons per molecular orbital
2
-
Bonding/antibonding higher or lower in energy than AO
Bonding-lower,antibonding-higher
-
Pauli Exclusion principle only applies to
Molecular orbitals
-
Bond order formula
Bonding-antibonding/2
-
Li2-N2 order of molecular orbitals
σ2s, σ2s*, π2p, σ2p, π2p*, σ2p*
-
O2, F2, beyond molecular orbitals
σ2s, σ2s*, σ2p, π2p, π2p*, σ2p
-
Paramagnetic
Unpaired electron spins, attracted to magnetic field
-
Diamagnetic
Paired spins, repelled by magnetic field
-
Heteronuclear Diatomics
- Molecule consisting of 2 different atoms
- If molecule contains only 2nd period elements except O or F, use Li2-N2 filling order
-
What orbitals contribute significantly to molecular orbitals
valence orbitals
-
Delocalization
When you have a network of adjacent atoms with unhybridized p orbitals, the pi bond spreads over entire network
