Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The orbital picture of ammonium ion indicating the important overlap of AOs is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
According to the
(b)
Interpretation:
The energy diagram of ammonium ion indicating the formation of molecular orbitals (MOs) is to be drawn.
Concept introduction:
The molecular orbitals are formed by overlapping of atomic orbitals of adjacent atoms. The numbers of molecular orbitals formed are equal to the number of atomic orbitals that overlap. The two atomic orbitals, on mixing along bonding axes, form two molecular orbitals; one is
