Examples for

Bonds & Orbitals

Atoms are held together in molecules by chemical bonds. Electrons occupy bonding, antibonding or nonbonding molecular orbitals that can be classified as sigma-, pi-, delta- or phi-like. The number of electrons in bonding and antibonding orbitals between a pair of atoms gives rise to the bond order for those atoms with values ranging from one to six. Use Wolfram|Alpha to find out about the different types of bonds in molecules and to compute the orbital hybridization.
