Bonding Theories > Molecular Orbitals
C. Bonding Theory:
1. molecular orbitals: When two atoms combine,
the molecular orbital model assumes that their
atomic orbitals overlap to produce orbitals that
apply to the entire molecule.
a. belongs to a molecule as a whole.
2. bonding orbital: when a covalent bond is
occupied by two electrons.

8.3 Bonding Theories > Molecular Orbitals
a. sigma bond: two atomic orbitals combine to
form a molecular orbital that is symmetrical
around the axis connecting two atomic nuclei.
b. pi bond ( bond): bonding electrons are found
in sausage-shaped regions above and below the
bond axis of the bonded atoms.

8.3 Bonding Theories > VSEPR Theory
3. VSEPR (valence-shell electron-pair
repulsion) theory: repulsion between electron
pairs causes molecular shapes to adjust so that
the valence-electron pairs stay as far apart as
possible.
