Vibrations

From the 3N-6 Rule, 6 forms of vibrational motion would be expected from a NH3 molecule because it has 4 atoms.

Vibrational modes 2 and 3 are degenerate, aswell as modes 5 and 6 are degenerate.

Vibrational modes 1,2 and 3 are bending vibrations while modes 4,5 and 6 are bond stretch vibrations.

Vibrational mode 4 is highly symmetric.

Vibrational mode 1 is the umbrella mode.

4 bands would be expected in the experimental spectrum of gaseous ammonia.


Charge

The Charge on the nitrogen is -1.125

The Charge on the hydrogen is +0.375

This is expected as nitrogen is more electronegative than hydrogen and so would pull electrons towards it more readily

Vibrations

As N2 is a diatomic homonuclear molecule and so the 1 vibration the molecule undergoes will be infrared inactive.

Vibrations

H2SiO has 4 atoms in each molecule and so from the 3N-6 rule it should have 6 vibrational modes, which it does as shown by the image above.


Molecular Orbitals

The occupied molecular orbitals in H2SiO


MO 1 is the 1s orbital on the Si

MO 2 is the 1s orbital on the O

MO 3 is the 2s orbital on the Si

MO 4,5,6 are the 3 2p orbitals on the Si

MO 6

All these orbitals are too small and high energy to contribute to the bonding in the molecule

MO 7


MO 7 is the combination of an sp2 hybrid orbital (formed from the 3s and 2 3p orbitals) on the Si and an sp2 hybrid orbital (formed from the 2s and 2 2p orbitals) on the O. This molecular orbital is the Si-O sigma orbital.

MO 9

MO 9 is the combination of the 1s orbital on the H and the sp2 hybrid orbital on the Si. It is distorted by the high electronegativity of the O

MO 11

MO 11 is the combination of remaining 3p orbital on the Si and the remaining 2p orbital on the O. This orbital is known as the Si-O pi orbital.


Bond Lengths and angles

Si-O = 1.53172 Ångström

Si-H = 1.48652 Ångström

O-Si-H = 124.15758o

H-Si-H = 111.68594o

Charge

The Charge on the Silicon is +1.472

The Charge on the Hydrogens are -0.236

The Charge on the Oxygen is -1.001
