Electronic Structure of Molecules: Diatomic Molecules, Small Molecules, Saturated Hydrocarbons, Conjugated Molecules, Molecules of Biochemical Interest focuses on the study of the electronic structure of molecules and associated molecular properties. The publication first offers information on hydrogen ion-molecule and various kinds of molecular orbitals and helium atom and hydrogen molecule. Discussions focus on the method of linear combinations of atomic orbitals, method of the united atoms, and remarks on helium atom and hydrogen molecule. The text then elaborates on diatomic molecules and general problems in the structure of molecules. The book touches on molecules containing only cores and simple bonds and small molecules formed by simple bonds and unshared electrons. Topics include alicyclic paraffins and the idea of a simple bond, methane, molecules of ammonia and water in their equilibrium configurations, and relationship between electronic structure and the position of nuclei. The publication is a valuable source material for readers interested in the electronic structure of molecules.
