6 Questions
What type of bond is formed when one atom donates both electrons to form a bond with another atom?
Coordinate covalent bond
Which theory helps in predicting the geometry of molecules based on the repulsion between electron pairs?
VESPR theory
What term is used to describe a situation where an atom has fewer than eight electrons in its valence shell?
Incomplete octet
Which type of bond is formed by the overlap of atomic orbitals head-on, allowing free rotation around the bond axis?
Sigma bond
What term is used to describe a situation where an atom has fewer than eight electrons in its valence shell, such as in the case of boron compounds?
Incomplete octet
Which theory explains the shapes of molecules based on the repulsion between electron pairs around a central atom?
VESPR theory
