Use Hückel molecular orbital theory to find the orbital energies of the
electrons of the cyclopentadienyl anion ( 
).
Calculate the delocalization energy of this anion. Delocalization
energy is the difference between the energy of a system and the
energy of an equivalent number of electrons in separated bonds.
It may help to draw a Lewis diagram for the anion first. Hint: There is
one lone pair of electrons in the Lewis diagram.
