Molecular Orbital Theory

Molecular Orbital Theory is a method in chemistry for describing the electronic structure of molecules. It posits that atomic orbitals combine to form molecular orbitals, which are spread over the entire molecule and can be occupied by electrons. These molecular orbitals are classified as bonding, antibonding, or non-bonding, influencing the stability and properties of the molecule. The theory helps explain molecular bonding, the arrangement of electrons, and predicts the magnetic and spectral properties of molecules, providing a more comprehensive understanding than earlier models like Valence Bond Theory.
