    This document provides an overview of molecular orbital theory and its applications. It defines molecular orbital theory and discusses how atomic orbitals combine to form molecular orbitals on single and multiple atoms. The document also explores using molecular orbital theory to explain diamagnetic and paramagnetic properties of molecules like N2, F2 and Ne2 and how bond order relates to bond strength. Finally, it asks the reader to write molecular orbital configurations and bond orders for fluorene species and oxygen species.

    Tutorial 3

    1
    Molecular Orbital Theory
    [Type the author name]

    Subtopic 3.1

    1. Define molecular orbital theory.


    2. How many electrons can be placed into each MO?
    3. If you combine two atomic orbitals on two different atoms, is this a hybrid orbital
    or molecular orbital? If you combine two atomic orbitals on one atom, is this a
    hybrid orbital or molecular orbital?
    4. Define bonding and antibonding molecular orbitals.

    Subtopic 3.2-3.4

    1. Use the molecular orbital theory to explain why Be2 does not exist.
    2. Define paramagnetic properties. Explain briefly how paramagnetic molecules can
    be tested for this property.
    3. Draw the MO diagram, write the electron configuration and calculate bond order
    for these molecules. Also, decide whether the molecule is diamagnetic or
    paramagnetic:
    a. N2
    b. F2
    c. Ne2
    4. Explain the significance of bond order.
    5. Can bond order be used to compare the strengths of chemical bonds?
    6. Write MO electron configurations for these species:
    a. F2, F2 -, F2+
    b. O2, O2 -, O22-, O2+, O22+
    7. State the bond order for the species in Q7.
