  "term": "Correlation diagram",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "A diagram that illustrates how the energy levels of molecular orbitals or electronic states of reactants evolve into those of products during a chemical reaction. It connects the orbitals or states of reactants and products based on their symmetry and energy. These diagrams are used to predict the feasibility and stereochemistry of concerted reactions.",
