Valence Bond Theory concentrates on

individual bonds in a molecule and tends to ignore electrons not

used in bonding.

MOLECULAR ORBITAL MODELMOLECULAR ORBITAL MODEL

Molecular Orbital Theory assumes ALL

the orbitals of the atoms are able to take

part in bonding.

Every atom has a complete set of

orbitals, but not all of them contain

electrons

Remember that orbitals are really the solutions

of Schrodinger’s equation, and that they

are called wave-functions

While wave functions can be

positive or negative, probabilities can only be positive.

Wave functions, like waves, can overlap with one another. They can reinforce each other, or

they can cancel each other out.

Geometry favorable to Geometry favorable to overlapoverlap

When a bonding orbital is formed, the energy of the orbital is lower than

those of its parent atomic orbitals.

Similarly, when an anti-bonding orbital is

formed, the energy of the orbital is higher

than those of its parent atomic orbitals.
