In Hydrogen bonding, H atom is linked to a highly electronegative atom like F, O, N. Here, we will discuss the conditions, examples, types, effects of hydrogen bonding. What is Hydrogen bonding and examples Conditions for H-bonding Effects or consequences of H-bonding H-bonding explains the abnormal physical properties in the molecules. 1. Higher melting and […]

Here, we will discuss how to write EC for heteronuclear diatomic molecule. We will also how to calculate bond order of NO, CO molecules and NO+, NO-, CO+ ions What is bond order of NO heteronuclear diatomic molecule What is bond order of CO diatomic molecule What is bond order of CN- ion What is […]

Apply the rules / principles to fill the E.C. of homonuclear diatomic molecular ion. It includes Aufbau’s Principle, Pauli’s exclusion Principle & Hund’s rule of maximum multiplicity. What is electronic configuration of H2+ molecular ion H2+ has only 1 electron. It occupies the lowest energy level. E.C. for H2+ ion = sigma 1s1 Bond order […]

Molecular orbital are of 2 types that is sigma and pi. Here we will discuss how the different types of MO’s formed. What are the types of Molecular orbital 1. Overlapping of 1s with 1s MO The overlapping of 1s with 1s results in the formation of sigma 1s and sigma* 1s MOs 2. Overlapping […]

Formation of molecular orbital occur by the linear combination of atomic orbitals. Here we will discuss about the types of MO and their formation. What is LCAO Difference between bonding and antibonding molecular orbital Conditions for the combination of atomic orbitals to form MO Check out the post on Molecular orbital theory here : For […]
