A. Suppose that a molecular orbital has the (unnormalized) form 0.727A + 0.144B. Find a linear combination of the orbitals A and B that is orthogonal to this combination and determine the normalization constants of both combinations using S= 0.250.

b. Suppose that a molecular orbital has the (unnormalized) form 0.727A + 0.144B. Find a linear combination of the orbitals A and B that is orthogonal to this combination and determine the normalization constants of both combinations using S = 0.117.

Answer:

The the normalization constant a = 0.880N and b = -0.356N

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

A. Suppose that a molecular orbital has the (unnormalized) form 0.727A + 0.144B. Find a linear combination of the orbitals A and B that is orthogonal to this combination and determine the normalization constants of both combinations using S= 0.250.

b. Suppose that a molecular orbital has the (unnormalized) form 0.727A + 0.144B. Find a linear combination of the orbitals A and B that is orthogonal to this combination and determine the normalization constants of both combinations using S = 0.117.
