Why lowest energy orbital more stable?
  • 1 answers

Swami Jee 8 years, 3 months ago

A molecule will be stable if there are more attractive forces and less repulsive forces.

Attractive forces lower the potential energy of the molecule and repulsive forces increase the potential energy of the molecule.

Therefore molecules with lower energy are more stable.

This is used in energy minimization to determine the most stable conformation of a molecule, most stable structure of a molecule etc.

It is also used in binding studies to determine the most stable interaction between a substrate/ligand/drug and the enzyme.
