Its fundamental process is the creation of a Schr?dinger wavefunction for an electron bound to a molecule: spatial distribution of the square of that wavefunction is then this theory's namesake construct.
This has the advantage that it can successfully explain why helium gas is not diatomic and why liquid oxygen is paramagnetic unlike the hybridization valence bond model. Its fundamental process is the creation of a Schr?dinger wavefunction for an electron bound to a molecule: spatial distribution of the square of that wavefunction is then this theory's namesake construct. For ten points, name the bonding model whose namesake diagrams allow elucidation of the spin-pairing of electrons bound in a molecule and the existence of bonding and anti-bonding orbitals.
