ABSTRACT: The Linear Combination of Atomic Orbitals (LCAO) model is presented as it applies to small heterogeneous molecules. A non-mathematical approach is used to enable the discussion of the terminology used. The production of light and the rules that govern it are examined.
Keywords: linear combination of atomic orbitals, LCAO, energy level, electronic transitions, color, molecular orbital theory
