[[Category:Quantum mechanics templates]] to the <includeonly> section at the bottom of that page. Otherwise, add <noinclude>[[Category:Quantum mechanics templates]]</noinclude> to the end of the template code, making sure it starts on the same line as the code's last character.
The position of each atom is determined by the nature of the chemical bonds by which it is connected to its neighboring atoms. The molecular geometry can be described by the positions of these atoms in space, evoking bond lengths of two joined atoms, bond angles of three connected atoms, and torsion angles ( dihedral angles ) of three ...
MO diagram of dihydrogen Bond breaking in MO diagram. The smallest molecule, hydrogen gas exists as dihydrogen (H-H) with a single covalent bond between two hydrogen atoms. As each hydrogen atom has a single 1s atomic orbital for its electron, the bond forms by overlap of these two atomic orbitals. In the figure the two atomic orbitals are ...
Each orbital in an atom is characterized by a set of values of three quantum numbers n, ℓ, and m ℓ, which respectively correspond to electron's energy, its orbital angular momentum, and its orbital angular momentum projected along a chosen axis (magnetic quantum number). The orbitals with a well-defined magnetic quantum number are generally ...
The localized orbital corresponding to one O-H bond is the sum of these two delocalized orbitals, and the localized orbital for the other O-H bond is their difference; as per Valence bond theory. For multiple bonds and lone pairs, different localization procedures give different orbitals.
Walsh diagrams in conjunction with molecular orbital theory can also be used as a tool to predict reactivity. By generating a Walsh Diagram and then determining the HOMO/LUMO of that molecule, it can be determined how the molecule is likely to react. In the following example, the Lewis acidity of AH 3 molecules such as BH 3 and CH 3 + is predicted.
