1. When you fill in a molecular orbital diagram with electrons,
the electrons have opposite spins.
a. True
b. False
2. Pi molecular orbitals have electron density on the
internuclear axis.
a. True
b. False
3. A molecular orbital is:
a. an orbital that encompasses more than one molecule
b. an orbital that encompasses an entire molecule, and results
from the interaction of atomic orbitals
c. the same as an atomic orbital
d. a number based on the number of...
The electron configuration of an atom tells us how many
electrons are in each orbital. For example, helium has two
electrons in the 1s orbital. Therefore the electron
configuration of He is 1s2
part a:
What is the ground-state electron configuration of a neutral
atom of nickel?
Express your answer in condensed form, in order of increasing
orbital energy. For example, [He]2s22p2 would be
entered as [He]2s^22p^2 .
part b:
What is the ground-state electron configuration of the oxide ion...
An s orbital and a p orbital can overlap to
make a sigma bond as follows:
The two in-phase lobes overlap and
there is symmetry about the internuclear axis.
For each type of bonding below, select
one p orbital (any of your choosing) and one d
orbital (again, any one you feel appropriate). You can (and
probably need to!) select different orbitals for each example.
Identify each orbital (by name), make sure to mark the phase of
each lobe (+...

a, How many electrons are needed to fill all states in a
band?
b, What is the meaning of the Fermi energy?
c, What is the Fermi surface of a metal?
