Bonding and geometry

Thermodynamic properties (71,72), force constants (73), and infrared absorption characteristics (74) are documented. The coordinatively unsaturated species, Ni(CO)2 and Ni(CO)2, also exist and the bonding and geometry data have been subjected to molecular orbital treatments (75,76). 

In this chapter we will illustrate some of the methods described in the previous sections. It is of course impossible to cover all types of bonding and geometries, but for highlighting the features we will look at the H2O molecule. This is small enough that we can employ the full spectrum of methods and basis sets.

This article gives a simple introduction to the electron densities of molecules and how they can be analyzed to obtain information on bonding and geometry. More detailed discussions can be found in the books by Bader (4), Popelier (5), and Gillespie and Popelier (6). Computational details to reproduce the results presented in this paper are presented in Appendix 1. 

Chapters 8 and 9 are devoted to a discussion of applications of the VSEPR and LCP models, the analysis of electron density distributions to the understanding of the bonding and geometry of molecules of the main group elements, and on the relationship of these models and theories to orbital models. Chapter 8 deals with molecules of the elements of period 2 and Chapter 9 with the molecules of the main group elements of period 3 and beyond.
