  2. Non-covalent interaction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-covalent_interaction

    Since oxygen is more electronegative than the carbon that is covalently bonded to it, the electrons associated with that bond will be closer to the oxygen than the carbon, creating a partial negative charge (δ −) on the oxygen, and a partial positive charge (δ +) on the carbon. They are not full charges because the electrons are still ...

  3. Bond order - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_order

    In carbon monoxide, − C≡O +, the bond order between carbon and oxygen is 3. In thiazyl trifluoride N≡SF 3, the bond order between sulfur and nitrogen is 3, and between sulfur and fluorine is 1. In diatomic oxygen O=O the bond order is 2 (double bond). In ethylene H 2 C=CH 2 the bond order between the two carbon atoms is also 2. The bond ...

  4. 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 ...

  5. Bonding in solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_in_solids

    Covalent and ionic bonding form a continuum, with ionic character increasing with increasing difference in the electronegativity of the participating atoms. Covalent bonding corresponds to sharing of a pair of electrons between two atoms of essentially equal electronegativity (for example, C–C and C–H bonds in aliphatic hydrocarbons).

  6. Three-center two-electron bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Three-center_two-electron_bond

    The combination of three atomic orbitals form three molecular orbitals: one bonding, one non-bonding, and one anti-bonding. The two electrons go into the bonding orbital, resulting in a net bonding effect and constituting a chemical bond among all three atoms. In many common bonds of this type, the bonding orbital is shifted towards two of the ...

  7. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    In non-polar covalent bonds, the electronegativity difference between the bonded atoms is small, typically 0 to 0.3. Bonds within most organic compounds are described as covalent. The figure shows methane (CH 4), in which each hydrogen forms a covalent bond with the carbon. See sigma bonds and pi bonds for LCAO descriptions of such bonding. [22]

  8. Three-center four-electron bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/.../Three-center_four-electron_bond

    This exercise generates the diagram at right (Figure 1). Three molecular orbitals result from the combination of the three relevant atomic orbitals, with the four electrons occupying the two MOs lowest in energy – a bonding MO delocalized across all three centers, and a non-bonding MO localized on the peripheral centers.

  9. Carbon–oxygen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/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 .
