Reading: Chapter 9, sections 9.4-9.7
How can a molecule with polar bonds be nonpolar?
As you read these sections ask yourself:
Why do we need theories of bonding that differ from VSEPR?How does Valence Bond theory differ from the Lewis concept of chemical bonding?How does molecular orbital theory differ from valence bond theory?H d h b id bit l diff f t i
Chem 101 4
How does a hybrid orbital differ from a pure atomic orbital? How are hybrid orbitals related to the VSEPR shapes you learned earlier?How do sigma and pi bonds differ from each other?

Valence Bond Theory
valence electrons are in the localized atomic orbitals of isolated atoms
bond is formed from overlap of half-filled valence orbitals, spin-pairing of valence electrons
