ABSTRACT

Type of bond is vital to understand the mechanism of interaction between corresponds atoms. We used three kinds of method to determine the type of bond between diatomic cluster of platinum and hydrogen: types of element, electronegativity and electron distribution. In this work, we found that the results from these three methods are not unanimously agreed with each other for bond type forming in platinum-hydrogen diatomic cluster. Thus, we conclude that the type of bond is hybrid of both: mainly covalent and slightly ionic.

 

Keywords: Diatomic cluster; hybrid-bond; platinum; type of bond

 

ABSTRAK

Jenis ikatan adalah penting bagi memahami mekanisme sesuatu interaksi antara dua atom terbabit. Kami telah menggunakan tiga kaedah dalam menentukan jenis ikatan di antara kelompok dwi-atom platinum dan hidrogen: jenis unsur, keelektronegatifan dan taburan elektron. Dalam kajian ini, kami dapati bahawa keputusan daripada ketiga-tiga kaedah tidak sepakat mengenai jenis ikatan yang terbentuk antara kelompok dwi-atom platinum dan hidrogen. Oleh itu, kami menyimpulkan bahawa jenis ikatan yang terbentuk adalah campuran ikatan kovalen dan ionik.

 

Kata kunci: Ikatan kacukan; jenis ikatan; kelompok dwiatom; platinum
