Vibrations

According to the 3N-6 rule, I would expect to have 12-6=6 modes.

Modes 2 and 3; 5 and 6 are degenerate.

Bending modes: 1,2,3; Stretching modes - 4,5,6

Mode number 4 is highly symmetric.

Mode number 1 is known as the umbrella mode.

I would expect to see 3 bands in the experimental spectrum of gaseous ammonia, as it has 3 different energy bands.

Charges in Ammonia

Charge on N = -1.125

Charge on H = 0.375

I would expect to have a negative charge on the N atom, as it has a higher value of electronegativity.

Charge Distribution

Atomic charges:

C - -0.930

H - 0.233

Molecular Orbitals

–Derived from the 1s atomic orbital of the C atom.

–Core orbital, thus deep in energy.

–Non-bonding, occupied by 2 electrons.

–Have no effect on bonding.

–Hybridised molecular orbital, combination of 2s+2p electrons from C and 1s electrons from H.

–Deeper in energy than other hybridised molecular orbitals due to increased s character.

–Differs from an s molecular orbital because its slightly directional.

–Bonding, sigma bond between C and H, occupied by 2 electrons.

–3 identical hybridised molecular orbital (pointing in different directions)

–HOMO, energy in the HOMO/LUMO region.

–Mixture of 2s+2p electrons from C and 1s electrons from H

–Bonding, sigma bond between C and H, occupied by 2 electrons.

–Higher in E than the first hybridised molecular orbital.

–There are 3 degenerate bonding orbitals at this E level.

–Corresponding to the first bonding molecular orbital (from 1s on C)

–LUMO, its energy is therefore in the HOMO/LUMO region.

–Unoccupied antibonding orbital.

–Unfilled, has no contribution to bonding.

–Lower in E than other hybridised antibonding orbitals, thus harder to occupy (harder to break this bond)

–Corresponding to hybridised molecular orbital which was lower in E due to different s contribution.

–Unoccupied, antibonding orbital.

–Its lower in Energy than other hybridised antiobonding orbitals thus harder to occupy.

–Unfilled, has no contribution to bonding.

–There are 3 degenerate antibonding orbitals at this E level.
