Normal and orthogonal wave function

Normal wave function: 

if probability of finding electron in space is unity i.e 100℅ the wave function sie is said to be normalised 

or Integration  of ꌏ^2 over the whole space must be equal to 1

∫ꌏ^2 dxdydz = 1

if the wave function satisfied the above relation .it is said to be normalised.

Orthogonal wave function :

if ꌏ(1)  and ꌏ(2)  represent two different acceptable wave function.

  the product of two wave functions integrated over the entire space must be equal to zero.

∫ꌏ(1)ꌏ(2) dxdydz = 0

the wave function which obey the above relation is said to be orthogonal.

# if wave function -ve than called imaginary.
# if wave function +ve than called real.

wave function which are both normalised and orthogonal are called orthagonal normalised function.

Electronegativity scales and disadvantage of scales and its nunericals

Electronegativity scales: 1.Pauling scale of electronegativity: in diatomic molecule (A-B) ,the bond formed between two atoms A and  B will be intermediate between  pure Covalent (A-B)  and pure ionic character,  the bond between A and B will be  strong than bond energy increased. if bond (A-B) has been purily covalent than bond energy can be calculated as average bond energy of bond (A-A)  and bond (B-B).     that means it is equal to bond energy of bond (A-B) E(A-B)  = 1/2[ E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] however experiemental value of bond (A-B)  more than this value  because of difference in electronegativity  of A and B the difference ∆ is given by simple expression ∆ = E(A-B) - 1/2 [E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] where E(A-B)  is experimental value of bond energy. if Ҳ(A)  and  Ҳ(B) are the electronegative of elements A and B than Ҳ(A) - Ҳ(B) = 0.18√∆ for numerical ∆ = E(A-B)  -[√(E(A-A) ×E(B-B) )] Disadvan...
