Molecular orbitals structures

On the other hand, the XPS data near the Fermi level provide us the valuable information about the band structures of nanoparticles. XPS spectra near the Fermi level of the PVP-protected Pd nanoparticles, Pd-core/ Ni-shell (Ni/Pd = 15/561, 38/561) bimetallic nanoparticles, and bulk Ni powder were investigated by Teranishi et al. [126]. The XPS spectra of the nanoparticles become close to the spectral profile of bulk Ni, as the amount of the deposited Ni increases. The change of the XPS spectrum near the Fermi level, i.e., the density of states, may be related to the variation of the band or molecular orbit structure. Therefore, the band structures of the Pd/Ni nanoparticles at Ni/Pd >38/561 are close to that of the bulk Ni, which greatly influence the magnetic property of the Pd/Ni nanoparticles. 

Many molecules that have several double bonds are much less reactive than might be expected. The reason for this is that the double bonds in these structures cannot be localized unequivocally. Their n orbitals are not confined to the space between the double-bonded atoms, but form a shared, extended Tu-molecular orbital. Structures with this property are referred to as resonance hybrids, because it is impossible to describe their actual bonding structure using standard formulas. One can either use what are known as resonance structures—i. e., idealized configurations in which n electrons are assigned to specific atoms (cf pp. 32 and 66, for example)—or one can use dashed lines as in Fig. B to suggest the extent of the delocalized orbitals. (Details are discussed in chemistry textbooks.)... 

The molecular orbital structure of 1,2,3-benzotriazine has been calculated using the Hiickel method, and the energy levels, charge densities, and wave functions were obtained.Theoretically the charge densities thus obtained should be of some value in predicting the positions of electrophilic and nucleophilic attack, but in the absence of information on reagents and reaction conditions, such predictions cannot be made with any degree of accuracy. 

He concluded that the undisturbed (001) basal surface of molybdenum disulphide has no ability to form bonds or to react unless its molecular orbital structure is altered by physical or chemical means.
