Energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-003928",
  "term": "Energy of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The energy level of the lowest unoccupied molecular orbital (LUMO) in a molecule, representing the orbital that is most likely to accept an electron. This energy is related to the electron affinity of the molecule. A lower LUMO energy indicates a greater tendency for the molecule to accept electrons in chemical reactions.",
