Covalent and VSEPR Theory

Front

What is covalent bonding?

Back

Covalent bonding is a type of chemical bond where two atoms share one or more pairs of electrons to achieve stability.

Front

What is VSEPR theory?

Back

VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory is a model used to predict the geometry of individual molecules based on the repulsion between electron pairs in the valence shell.
