What is the concentration of Br^- in a solution prepared by mixing 0.500 L of 0.0450 M KBr and 0.250 L of 0.0250 M CaBr₂?

As a variation of the preceding problem explore the consequences of increasing the energy separation of the ψB and ψC orbitals (use SAB and SAC equal to 0 for this stage of the calculation). Are you justified in ignoring orbital ψC at any stage?

Show, if overlap is ignored, (a) that if a molecular orbital is expressed as a linear combination of two atomic orbitals in the form ψ = ψA cos θ + ψB sin θ, where θ is a parameter that varies between 0 and π, with ψA and ψB are orthogonal and normalized to 1, then ψ is also normalized to 1. (b) To what values of θ do the bonding and antibonding orbitals in a homonuclear diatomic molecule correspond?

Estimate the orbital energies to use in a calculation of the molecular orbitals of HBr. For data, see Tables 8B.4 and 8B.5. Take β = −1.00 eV.

A reasonably reliable conversion between the Mulliken and Pauling electronegativity scales is given by eqn 9D.4. Use Table 9D.1 in the Resource section to assess how good the conversion formula is for Period 3 elements.
