Advanced Physical Chemistry Problems (II), Hydrogen Atom and Hyrdrogen Molecular Ion

Slightly advanced problems in Physical Chemistry, herein concerning the H-atom and the Hydrogen Molecular Cation, are presented and discussed.

Triatomic Molecular Orbitals

If elementary Quantum Chemistry stops at diatomic molecules, some students may be left with false impressions concerning how one builds polyatomic molecule's LCAO-MOs. This reading discusses building such molecular orbitals from atomic orbitals centered at different spatial coordinates.
