Orbital energy levels in molecular hydrogen: A simple approach

In this article, an attempt is made to give a logical presentation of the energetics involved in the formation of molecular hydrogen using concepts that should be familiar to every student beginning the study of molecular orbital theory. Experimental data on ionization energies and bond energies are...

Description
Summary:In this article, an attempt is made to give a logical presentation of the energetics involved in the formation of molecular hydrogen using concepts that should be familiar to every student beginning the study of molecular orbital theory. Experimental data on ionization energies and bond energies are emphasized throughout.
