| 1. | A sigma bonding orbital is created between the atomic orbitals with like symmetry.
|
| 2. | After introducing an anti-bonding orbital
|
| 3. | There really is no such thing as non-bonding orbitals, just arbitrarily weak overlap.
|
| 4. | Non-bonding orbitals are the equivalent in molecular orbital theory of the lone pairs in Lewis structures.
|
| 5. | Different bonding orbitals are distinguished that differ by electron configuration ( electron cloud shape ) and by energy levels.
|
| 6. | This MO is called the bonding orbital and its energy is lower than that of the original atomic orbitals.
|
| 7. | The repulsive interaction should be proportional to the overlap integrals summed of non-bonding orbitals with exponential relationship:
|
| 8. | In molecular orbital theory this idea is commonplace if the third electron is placed in an anti-bonding orbital.
|
| 9. | Phosphine ligands'& pi;-acidity is due to P-C ? * anti-bonding orbitals.
|
| 10. | A ab initio molecular orbital calculations, which show that the contribution of d functions to the bonding orbitals is small.
