According to Crystal Field theory(CFT), complexes with stronger ligands must absorb light with higher frequency hence would emit corresponding complementary colour. The colour of [Ni(H2O)2(en)2]^+2 blue - purple and colour of [Ni(H2O)6]^+2 is green, whereas the colour of [Ni(en)3]^+2 purple. (Whe...

I am a mathematician working in the field of numerical analysis and parallel computing. I know very little about chemistry and therefore it is quite difficult for me to parse papers on chemistry. I understand that the time-step used in MD simulations can be extended if we impose constraints on th...

I have a personal theory.I think in the limit of molecules with many nuclei and electrons the solutions of MOT become equal to the solutions of VBT and molecular orbitals can be approximated by valence shell bonding orbitals but for molecules with few nuclei and electrons MOT is clearly different...
