Document Summary

Lecture 17 - antibonding, bonding, energy levels and bond order. Hydrogen molecule uses the cross-sections of the 90% probability surfaces. Three characteristics of orbital diagram: (chirp, 8. 11: the symmetry of the orbital: each mo is labelled with the appropriate symbol (if the orbital has cylindrical symmetry) or. (if the orbital has a plane of symmetry containing the bond: whether the orbital is bonding or anti-bonding: an asterisk * indicates antibonding orbital (ex. * is the anti bonding orbital while is the bonding orbital: the aos from which the mo originates: the ao labels are (chirp, subscripts (ex. 1s is the bonding mo derived from the 1s orbitals on adjacent atoms) Bond order = (ebonding - eantibonding) / 2: ebonding- the number of electrons in bonding orbitals, eantibonding- the number of electrons in anti-bonding orbitals. Exercises: calculate the h-h bond order in h2 molecule in the ground state.
