The standard potential of a redox couple is a measure of the thermodynamic tendency of an atom, ion, or molecule to accept an electron (Topic 6D). Studies indicate that there is a correlation between the LUMO energy and the standard potential of aromatic hydrocarbons. Do you expect the standard potential to increase or decrease as the LUMO energy decreases? Explain your answer.

Formal charge: ?? = ??? – (??? + ???); where ??? = valence electrons in free atom, ???= free-pair electrons, ??? = number of bonds to the atom. The elementary charge: ? = 1.6022 × 10−19 C.1 Debye (?)= 3.3356 × 10−30 C × m. The dipole moment has definition: ? = ? × ?, where ? is partialcharge in Coulomb (?), ? is the bond distance (?).
