EXPLAINING THE GEOMETRY OF SIMPLE MOLECULES USING MOLECULAR ORBITAL ENERGY-LEVEL DIAGRAMS BUILT BY USING SYMMETRY PRINCIPLES
The built of qualitative energy-level molecular diagrams for different geometries of simple molecules allow to explain the preferred geometry. The diagrams are built using simple symmetry principles and explain, on basis of the number of nonbonding electrons, for example, why the molecule of water i...
