Interpretation:
The effect of the involvement of orbitals for sulfur on the symmetry-adapted linear combination of molecular orbitals for hydrogen sulfide is to be stated.
Concept introduction:
Symmetry-adapted linear combination is referred to as the wavefunction of the symmetry equivalent orbitals. The symmetry-adapted linear combination is used to determine the binding schemes and symmetries of the molecule. The SALC’s are determined with the help of character tables and great orthogonality theorem.

In order for the reaction to be catalyzed the propylene molecules must first adsorb onto the surface. In order to completely cover the surface of a piece of platinum that has an area of 1.50 cm² with propylene, a total of 3.45 x 10¹7 molecules are needed. Determine the mass of the propylene molecules that have been absorbed onto the platinum surface.arrow_forward
