Interpretation:
The effect of the involvement of orbitals for sulfur on the symmetry-adapted linear combination of molecular orbitals for hydrogen sulfide is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Symmetry-adapted linear combination is referred to as the wavefunction of the symmetry equivalent orbitals. The symmetry-adapted linear combination is used to determine the binding schemes and symmetries of the molecule. The SALC’s are determined with the help of character tables and great orthogonality theorem.

- Determine if the following species have permanent dipole moments. a Dichloromethane, CH2Cl2 b Chlorobenzene, C6H5Cl c Ammonia, NH3 d Carbon dioxide, CO2.arrow_forwardSolid sulfur normally consists of crystals of S8 molecules, but when heated strongly, the solid vaporizes to give S2 molecules (among other molecular species). Describe the bonding in S2 in molecular orbital terms, assuming the orbitals are analogous to those of the preceding period. What would you expect to happen to the sulfur sulfur bond length if two electrons were added to give the S22 ion? What would you expect to happen to the bond length if, instead, two electrons were taken away to give S22+?arrow_forwardIn the molecular orbital mode l, compare and contrast bonds with bonds. What orbitals form the bonds and what orbitals form the bonds? Assume the z-axis is the internuclear axis.arrow_forward
- Molecular Orbital Theory (See Examples 9.49.6.) The hydrogen molecular ion, H2+, can be detected spectroscopically. Write the electron configuration of the ion in molecular orbital terms. What is the bond order of the ion? Is the hydrogenhydrogen bond stronger or weaker in H2+ than in H2s?arrow_forwardDetermine if the following species have permanent dipole moments. a The carbonate ion, CO32 b The phosphate ion, PO43 c Uranium hexafluoride, UF6 d Bromine, Br2.arrow_forwardThe molecular orbital diagram of NO shown in Figure 10.47 also applies to OF. Draw the complete molecular orbital diagram for OF. What is the OF bond order? Figure 10.47 Molecular orbital diagram for nitric oxide (NO). The molecular orbital diagram for NO predicts a bond order of 2.5 and predicts that the molecule is paramagnetic with one unpaired electron. These predictions are verified by experimental measurements.arrow_forward
