  2. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    In molecular orbital theory, bond order is defined as half the difference between the number of bonding electrons and the number of antibonding electrons as per the equation below. [4][5] This often but not always yields similar results for bonds near their equilibrium lengths, but it does not work for stretched bonds. [6] Bond order is also an ...

  3. Lewis structure - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_structure

    Lewis structures – also called Lewis dot formulas, Lewis dot structures, electron dot structures, or Lewis electron dot structures (LEDs) – are diagrams that show the bonding between atoms of a molecule, as well as the lone pairs of electrons that may exist in the molecule. [1][2][3] A Lewis structure can be drawn for any covalently bonded ...

  4. Structural formula - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structural_formula

    Skeletal structural formula of Vitamin B 12.Many organic molecules are too complicated to be specified by a molecular formula.. The structural formula of a chemical compound is a graphic representation of the molecular structure (determined by structural chemistry methods), showing how the atoms are possibly arranged in the real three-dimensional space.

  5. Hückel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hückel_method

    In a sense, the Hückel bond order suggests that there are four π-bonds in benzene instead of the three that are implied by the Kekulé-type Lewis structures. The "extra" bond is attributed to the additional stabilization that results from the aromaticity of the benzene molecule.

  6. Sulfate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sulfate

    For sulfuric acid, computational analysis (with natural bond orbitals) confirms a clear positive charge on sulfur (theoretically +2.45) and a low 3d occupancy. Therefore, the representation with four single bonds is the optimal Lewis structure rather than the one with two double bonds (thus the Lewis model, not the Pauling model). [6]

  7. Lewis acids and bases - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lewis_acids_and_bases

    The equation is −ΔH = E A E B + C A C B + W. The W term represents a constant energy contribution for acid–base reaction such as the cleavage of a dimeric acid or base. The equation predicts reversal of acids and base strengths. The graphical presentations of the equation show that there is no single order of Lewis base strengths or Lewis ...

  8. Butadiene - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Butadiene

    1,3-Butadiene (/ ˌbjuːtəˈdaɪiːn /) [8] is the organic compound with the formula CH 2 =CH-CH=CH 2. It is a colorless gas that is easily condensed to a liquid. It is important industrially as a precursor to synthetic rubber. [9] The molecule can be viewed as the union of two vinyl groups.

  9. Chemical bonding of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bonding_of_water

    Chemical bonding of water. Lewis Structure of H 2 O indicating bond angle and bond length. Water (H. 2O) is a simple triatomic bent molecule with C 2v molecular symmetry and bond angle of 104.5° between the central oxygen atom and the hydrogen atoms. Despite being one of the simplest triatomic molecules, its chemical bonding scheme is ...
