Derive the following expression for the bonding and antibonding orbitals of a heteronuclear diatomic molecule consisting of two electrons in a molecular orbital of the form y = CAA + CBB with atomic orbitals A and B. Let aa=HAA, aB=HBB, B=HAB=HBA, SAA-SBB=1, and, as a simplification, let SAB=SBA=S=0 (zero-overlap approximation). Note that the assumption of SAB=SBA=S=0 is used simply to get a more transparent expression.

The molecule H3* has long been speculated to exist. The interest here is that the addition of the smallest bit of nuclear matter, a proton, now introduces additional nuclear repulsion over the H₂ problem. The issue was whether electron distributions could lead to a stable configuration. a) Draw what you think would be the most stable structure for H3* and show all the Coulombic terms (write out the potential needed for the corresponding Schroedinger equation). b) Draw what you think is the least stable configure of the 3 protons and 2 electrons. c) It is found that the structure involves the rotation of one proton around the other two, and interchange of which proton is rotating.
