Construction of MO Diagrams for Simple Polyatomic Molecules

In this video qualitative MO diagrams will be generated for simple polyatomic molecules (water, ammonia, and difluorocarbene) using so-called "ligand group orbitals" (LGOs) also known as symmetry adapted linear combinations of atomic orbitals, or SALCs. A future video will be devoted to learning how to generate SALCs.

I was constantly thinking where're the lone pairs of oxygen and I couldn't understand the textbook's explanation. I searched a lot and finally found you. Thank you so much it was helpful!

[@xinyanghermanleong9934]

Very concise and super helpful video. Thanks a lot!

Thanks for the tutorial, saved my quiz. Can you do SF6 and explain its hypervalence.

[@draemanplays]

Great video, I love you

[@rishavsingh4915]

Great video. How did you compute the relative energies of the orbitals?

[@Theterrific1sn]

they are constant. you can find them in any inorganic chemistry book

[@rishavsingh4915]

@@Theterrific1sn do you have any recommendations because i cannot find them in my housecroft textbook

[@felipegiraldo1986]

Very useful for my quantum chemistry course, thank you!

[@АлександрКабанец-х8з]

Hello! Could you tell me please in which textbook I can find such task? Thank you!

[@prithvirajshaw]

you are an angel. You literally saved my life, thank you very much!

[@gopinathhal4536]

please suggest a book

AWSOME, YOU HELPED A LOT

best one yet

[@yeny7194]

I still don’t understand how we get b2

[@prithvirajshaw]

read molecular symmetry from wikipedia or an inorganic text book. symmetry, symmetry operations, character table.
