Chapter 14, Problem 53E

Use Figs . 14 .45 and 14 .46 to answer the following questions.

  1. Would the bonding MO in HF place greater electrondensity near the H or the F atom? Why?
  2. Would the bonding MO have greater fluorine 2p character, greater hydrogen is character, or an equalcontribution from both? Why?
  3. Answer parts a and b for the antibonding MO in HF .

The BN bond generates a series of carbon-like compounds. Because? What supports this claim? Use examples of similar compounds. Can this statement be generalized to other compounds? Which?
Construct an approximate molecular orbital energy diagram for a hypothetical planar form of NH3.  From a consideration of the atomic energy levels, place the N and H3 orbitals on either side of a molecular orbital energy-level diagram. Then use your judgement about the effect of bonding and anti bonding interactions and energies of the parent orbitals to construct the molecular orbital energy levels in the centre of your diagram and draw lines indicating the contributions of the atomic orbitals to each molecular orbital. Ionization energies are I(H1s) = 13.6 eV, I(N2s) = 26.0 eV, and I(N2p)=13.4 eV.
This question will explore bonding in OH and OH- using molecular orbital theory a) Explain any differences in energy between atomic orbitals of O vs. the atomic orbital of H. b) Taking into account your response to part a, draw a molecular orbital diagram for the valence electrons in the neutral diatomic OH. Include a sketch of the molecular orbitals in your sketch. The relevant molecular orbitals listed in order of increasing energy are σ2s(1 orbital), σ2p(1 orbital), π2p (2 orbitals), σ2p∗(1 orbital). (Hint: the 2s atomic orbital of the O atom to not interact with the 1s atomic orbitals on the H atom). c) How do you expect the bond length in OH to compare to that of the OH- anion? Justify your answer by calculating the bond order of each species.
