 +==== 2.Step ====
 +Try to change the basis set, and report the obtained energy values for H.
 +After a couple of tries on your own, try to use some of the literature basis sets (given at the end of this exercise).
 +At the end, you should get a table like this :
 +
 +
 +^ Basis set                     ^ Energy  H (Eh)       ^
 +| mybasis (from given input)    | .... |
 +| basis try 1                   | .... | 
 +| basis try 2                   | .... |
 +| ....                          | .... |
 +| pc-0                          | .... | 
 +| pc-1                          | .... |
 +| pc-2                          | .... | 
 +
 +<note tip>Is always good to keep record of self-created basis sets, to track the effect of a change in value and number of exponents, contractions....etc.. </note>
 +
 +Repeat the procedure for H2. \\
 +H2 coordinates: 
 +<code>
 +H 0 0 0     
 +H 0.75 0 0   
 </code> </code>
 +
 +<note important> The H2 molecule does not have unpaired electrons. Remember to take out the LSD and MULTIPLICITY keywords. </note>
 +
 +===== Part II: Estimate the binding energy of H2 =====
 +
 +Binding energy: \\ 
 +
 +\[ \sum E_\text{products} -  \sum E_\text{rectants} = E(H_2) - 2 \cdot E(H) \]
 +
 +<note important> The binding energy value is significant only if the same basis is used for both reactants and products. </note>
 +
 +
 +You can now update your table:
 +
 +^ Basis set                     ^ Energy  H (Eh)       ^ Energy H2 (Eh) ^ Binding Energy H2 (Eh) ^
 +| mybasis (from given input)    | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| basis try 1                   | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| basis try 2                   | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| ....                          | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| pc-0                          | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| pc-1                          | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| pc-2                          | .... | .... | ....  |
 +| ....                          | .... | .... | ....  |

 +===== Part III: Questions =====
 +
 +- What is the effect of:\\
 +  * increasing/decreasing the value of the exponents for the given basis?
 +  * adding sets with p,d symmetry to the basis? You have the same effect in H and H2?
