  2. Atomic orbital - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atomic_orbital

    The p z orbital is the same as the p 0 orbital, but the p x and p y are formed by taking linear combinations of the p +1 and p −1 orbitals (which is why they are listed under the m = ±1 label). Also, the p +1 and p −1 are not the same shape as the p 0 , since they are pure spherical harmonics .

  3. Quantum number - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Quantum_number

    In chemistry and spectroscopy, ℓ = 0 is called s orbital, ℓ = 1, p orbital, ℓ = 2, d orbital, and ℓ = 3, f orbital. The value of ℓ ranges from 0 to n − 1, so the first p orbital (ℓ = 1) appears in the second electron shell (n = 2), the first d orbital (ℓ = 2) appears in the third shell (n = 3), and so on: [13]

  4. Hückel's rule - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hückel's_rule

    the molecule must be (close to) planar (p orbitals must be roughly parallel and able to interact, implicit in the requirement for conjugation); the molecule must be cyclic (as opposed to linear); the molecule must have a continuous ring of p atomic orbitals (there cannot be any sp 3 atoms in the ring, nor do exocyclic p orbitals count).

  5. Hückel method - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hückel_method

    In butadiene the 4 π-electrons occupy 2 low energy molecular orbitals, out of a total of 4, and for benzene 6 energy levels are predicted, two of them degenerate. For linear and cyclic systems (with N atoms), general solutions exist: [9] Frost circle mnemonic for 1,3-cyclopenta-5-dienyl anion

  6. Localized molecular orbitals - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Localized_molecular_orbitals

    Localized molecular orbitals are molecular orbitals which are concentrated in a limited spatial region of a molecule, such as a specific bond or lone pair on a specific atom. They can be used to relate molecular orbital calculations to simple bonding theories, and also to speed up post-Hartree–Fock electronic structure calculations by taking ...

  7. Periodic table - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_table

    The fourth shell contains one 4s orbital, three 4p orbitals, five 4d orbitals, and seven 4f orbitals, thus leading to a capacity of 2×1 + 2×3 + 2×5 + 2×7 = 32. [30] Higher shells contain more types of orbitals that continue the pattern, but such types of orbitals are not filled in the ground states of known elements. [ 45 ]

  8. Isovalent hybridization - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Isovalent_hybridization

    In chemistry, isovalent or second order hybridization is an extension of orbital hybridization, the mixing of atomic orbitals into hybrid orbitals which can form chemical bonds, to include fractional numbers of atomic orbitals of each type (s, p, d). It allows for a quantitative depiction of bond formation when the molecular geometry deviates ...

  9. Spectroscopic notation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spectroscopic_notation

    This notation is used to specify electron configurations and to create the term symbol for the electron states in a multi-electron atom. When writing a term symbol, the above scheme for a single electron's orbital quantum number is applied to the total orbital angular momentum associated to an electron state.
