Molecular orbital theory
This is the second modern theory of bonding, the first being valence bond theory. In molecular orbital theory covalent bonds

This is the second modern theory of bonding, the first being valence bond theory. In molecular orbital theory covalent bonds
Our familiar model of covalent bonding is largely based on the Lewis model, with atoms sharing pairs of bonding electrons

Once again, showing how covalent bonds are formed using dot and cross diagrams is simpler at A level than at
