Bonding Theories >8.3 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.

Bonding Theories >8.3 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.

Bonding Theories >8.3 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.
