25
Q

Involves the ‘sharing’ of a pair of electrons between two atoms and this leads to the formation of a bond holding the two atoms together.

A

Covalent Bond

26
Q

Is most often used to describe the bonding in organic molecules.

A

Valence Bond Theory

27
Q

In this model, bonds are considered to form from the overlap of two atomic orbitals on different atoms, each orbital containing a single electron.

A

Valence Bond Theory

28
Q

Orbitals that overlap extensively form bonds that are _______ than those that have less overlap.

A

Stronger

29
Q

Is a covalent bond in which the electron density is concentrated in the region along the internuclear axis.

A

Sigma (σ) bond

30
Q

Is a type of covalent bond that results from the side-by-side overlap of two p orbitals.

A

Pi bond (π bond)

31
Q

In this bond, the regions of orbital overlap lie on opposite sides of the internuclear axis.

A

Pi bond (π bond)

32
Q

Between any two atoms, the first bond formed will always be a _ bond, but there can only be one _ bond in any one location.

A

Sigma σ

33
Q

Is a concept of mixing two atomic orbitals with the same energy levels to give a degenerated new type of orbitals.
