ChemInform Abstract: THE SHAPES AND ENERGETICS OF DIMERIC LITHIUM AND SODIUM CYANIDES. AB INITIO MOLECULAR‐ORBITAL CALCULATIONSstructure (organic substancesThe geometries and energies of many different isomers of (LiCN)2 and (NaCN)2 have been investigated by ab initio molecular-orbital calculations, ...
Orbital hybridization is a concept in chemistry that deals with how atomic orbitals mix to form new hybrids with varying shapes and energies. Orbital hybridization is important in chemistry because it helps chemists to understand molecular structures and predict the reactivity of different species. ...
Since their description in the isolated atom is rather useless, approximated, more elongated shapes are depicted in all the general chemistry textbooks [1]. As an instance, if we combine the wave functions of 2s and 2pz orbitals in order to obtain the hybrid orbital sp3, we are forced to ...
Side Note: Orbital Hybridization In chemistry, hybridization is the concept of mixing atomic orbitals into new hybrid orbitals (with different energies, shapes, etc., than the component atomic orbitals) suitable for the pairing of electrons to form chemical bonds. H C s + p Hybrid Orbitals Miess...

One of the common topics discussed in undergraduate instruction that lends itself to calculation with Mathematica is the display of shapes of atomic and molecular orbital wave functions (5). We have prepared a set of instructions within Mathematica (called a 'package') that permit computation and ...
Magneto-optical response, i.e. optical response in the presence of a magnetic field, is commonly used for characterization of materials and in optical communications. However, quantum mechanical description of electric and magnetic fields in crystals is
Utilizing our own reflectivity matrix formalism based software package ReMagX17 we were able to perfectly simulate the magnetic XRMR spectra for the rotatable and pinned moments and to determine the underlying optical constants. We want to emphasize that the line shapes of the imaginary part of the...
(r) for Li-Mg alloy are shown in Fig.1. Overall, the predicted shapes and peak neighbors of pair distribution functions by OF-DFT within NLPPF match the results calculated by KS-DFT. Especially notable are the resulting contributions of the partial distributions (Fig.1b–d) calculated by ...
Molecular Orbital Theory Molecular orbital theory describes covalent bonds in terms of molecular orbitals, which result from interaction of the atomic orbitals of the bonding atoms and are associated with the entire molecule. Atomic Orbital = belongs to only one atom Molecular Orbital = belongs to th...
