Atomic Orbitals and Molecular Bonding

This lecture covers the pictorial representations of atomic orbitals, electronic configurations, valence electrons, VSEPR model, hybridization, formation of carbon-carbon single and multiple bonds, molecular orbital theory, and the description of covalent bonds. It also discusses the complementarity of Valence Bond and Molecular Orbital theories, molecular rotation around double bonds, and the molecular structure of various molecules with multiple bonds.
