Title: How do I draw the Molecular Orbital diagram for nitrogen monoxide (NO)?
Post by: TheMagnate on February 10, 2021, 08:25:51 AM
How can I determine the arrangement of molecular orbitals for NO?  I'm not sure if sp-mixing occurs because I cannot tell if the σ2s and σ2pz are close enough in energy to mix.

Thank you.
