Mastering Basis Sets in Theoretical Chemistry: Physical Meaning, Types, Applications, and BSSE Correction

  Basis Set in Theoretical Chemistry: An Introduction In theoretical chemistry, the concept of a basis set plays a fundamental role in the calculation of molecular properties. A basis set is a collection of functions used to approximate the wavefunction of a molecule. The wavefunction represents the quantum mechanical state of a molecule, and its calculation is the foundation for the prediction of molecular properties such as bond lengths, bond angles, and energies. The choice of basis set significantly affects the accuracy and computational cost of the calculation. Therefore, selecting the most suitable basis set is critical for obtaining reliable and accurate results. We will be looking at... ·          why we use basis sets. ·          the physical meaning of basis sets. ·          why to use STOs and GTOs. ·        ...

HOMO-LUMO Calculation and Analysis Using DFT method in Gaussian Software

  HOMO and LUMO are terms used in chemistry to refer to the Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital (HOMO) and the Lowest Unoccupied Molecular Orbital (LUMO), respectively. These orbitals are important in understanding the electronic structure and reactivity of molecules, especially in the context of organic and inorganic chemistry and chemical reactions.   HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital):   The HOMO represents the highest energy level of molecular orbitals that contain electrons. It is typically involved in chemical bonding and determines the electron-donating properties of a molecule. In terms of significance: It dictates the reactivity of a molecule in nucleophilic reactions. Molecules with higher energy HOMOs are more prone to donate electrons and act as nucleophiles. It plays a crucial role in determining the absorption spectrum of molecules. Absorption of light often involves promotion of electrons from the HOMO to the LUMO or higher energy orbitals, depending ...
