Dinitrogen (N2)

    The geometry optimization of 621G, 631G, and DZV are shown below for diatomic molecule of nitrogen gas. There is no bond angle because the molecule is at 180 degrees. The best optimization for bond length is 631G because using anything more precise would be an overestimation or unnecessary for such a simple molecule. The best geometry optimization was used to find the bond length and it was compared to the the literature value of 1.0977 Angstroms2. The percent error is 1.612%.

    This button displays the bond length for 621G optimization.

   This button displays the bond length for the 631G optimization. This also prove to be the best optimization for Dinitrogen's bond length.

    This button displays the bond length of DZV optimization.

    This displays the highest occupied molecular orbital in orbital 7. This was calculated by summing all the valence electrons and dividing by 2.

    This is the lowest unoccupied orbital in orbital 8. This is where electrons are found in excited states.

    Dinitrogen displays no partial atomic charges because the charges are equal and opposite.

        These buttons below the characterization of the s and p bonding orbitals. Dinitrogen has a bond order of 3, which represents a triple bond.
 
   This displays the combination of the bonding s orbitals of the two nitrogen atoms.
This displays the anti-bonding s orbital combination with the addition of a node.
This diplays the bonding pi orbitals of nitrogen gas.
This displays the anti-bonding pi orbitals of nitrogen gas with the addition of a node.

    Dinitrogen has no dipole moment because they are equally electronegative resulting in a net dipole of zero.

Potential Energy versus Bond Length concerning different levels of opimization theory
    621G is represented in red, 631G is represented in green, and DZV is represented in blue. As the level of optimization theory increased, the potential energy decreased. According the Hardtree-Fock SCF theory, the lowest potential energy is the most optimized geometry; Therefore, DZV gave the lowest potential energy than 621G and 631G.
