The delocalization energy of
Concept introduction:
The term conjugated dienes is used when the double bonds are present alternatively in a hydrocarbon chain. The mathematical function that describes the wave like behavior of an electron in a molecule is expressed by molecular orbital.
The delocalization energy for conjugated molecules is defined as the extra stability that a molecule attains by spreading its electron over the entire molecule. The delocalization of

Answer to Problem 15.2P
The delocalization energy of
Explanation of Solution
The delocalization energy of
The energy of ethylene bonding molecular orbital is
The formula for the calculation of
The bonding molecular orbital (BMOs) of ethylene contains two electrons.
The calculation of

The
The energy of electrons in
The energy of electrons in
The energy of electrons in
Substitute the values of the energies of
Now, substitute the value from equation (3) and (5) in equation (1) in order to calculate the value of delocalization energy of the molecule
Now,
Therefore, the delocalization energy obtained for
The molecule
