  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. Carbon monoxide - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_monoxide

    The carbon and oxygen are connected by a triple bond that consists of a net two pi bonds and one sigma bond. The bond length between the carbon atom and the oxygen atom is 112.8 pm. [11] [12] This bond length is consistent with a triple bond, as in molecular nitrogen (N 2), which has a similar bond length (109.76 pm) and nearly the same ...

  4. Carbon–oxygen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon–oxygen_bond

    Carbon–oxygen bond. A carbon–oxygen bond is a polar covalent bond between atoms of carbon and oxygen. [1][2][3]: 16–22 Carbon–oxygen bonds are found in many inorganic compounds such as carbon oxides and oxohalides, carbonates and metal carbonyls, [4] and in organic compounds such as alcohols, ethers, and carbonyl compounds. [5]: 32–36 ...

  5. Molecular orbital diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_orbital_diagram

    The σ from the 2p is more non-bonding due to mixing, and same with the 2s σ. This also causes a large jump in energy in the 2p σ* orbital. The bond order of diatomic nitrogen is three, and it is a diamagnetic molecule. [12] The bond order for dinitrogen (1σ g 2 1σ u 2 2σ g 2 2σ u 2 1π u 4 3σ g 2) is three because two electrons are now ...

  6. 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 ...

  7. Oxidation state - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oxidation_state

    The bond-order formula at the bottom is closest to the reality of four equivalent oxygens each having a total bond order of 2. That total includes the bond of order ⁠ 1 / 2 ⁠ to the implied cation and follows the 8 − N rule [7] requiring that the main-group atom's bond-order total equals 8 − N valence electrons of the neutral atom ...

  8. Cahn–Ingold–Prelog priority rules - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cahn–Ingold–Prelog...

    For double bonded molecules, Cahn–Ingold–Prelog priority rules (CIP rules) are followed to determine the priority of substituents of the double bond. If both of the high priority groups are on the same side of the double bond (cis configuration), then the stereoisomer is assigned the configuration Z (zusammen, German word meaning "together").

  9. Covalent bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Covalent_bond

    Covalent bond. A covalent bond forming H 2 (right) where two hydrogen atoms share the two electrons. A covalent bond is a chemical bond that involves the sharing of electrons to form electron pairs between atoms. These electron pairs are known as shared pairs or bonding pairs. The stable balance of attractive and repulsive forces between atoms ...
