Basic Bonding
This type of bond forms when atoms share electron.
What is a Covalent bond?
This rule states that atoms tend to have eight valence electrons.
What is the Octet rule?

Valence shell electron pair repulsion theory?
A molecule with two electron groups around the central atom has this geometry.
What is linear?
Sigma (O) bonds are formed by this type of orbital overlap.
What is head-on overlap?
The electrons involved in bonding are called these electrons.
