List of tables; 1 Atomic properties: one-electron atoms; 2 Atomic properties: two-electron atoms; 3 Atoms with more than two electrons: atomic properties and periodic trends; 4 Homonuclear diatomic molecules; 5 Gaseous alkali metal halides: ionic bonds; 6 Other heteronuclear diatomic molecules: polar covalent bonds; 7 Lewis' "cubical atom" model. Molecular orbital calculations on the one-electron molecule H[sup(+)sub(2)] and the two-electron molecule H[sub(2)]
Summary
This book describes the structures of molecules, i.e. their shape and size, as determined by experiments or advanced theoretical calculations, and gives an introduction to the simple concepts that chemists use to interpret these structures
