Which among the following concepts is NOT introduced by V. B. Theory?
Options
- ADelocalization of electron over the two nuclei.
- BShielding effect of electrons.
- CPartial ionic character of a covalent bond.
- DNumber of lone pair and bonded pair of electrons decide the shape of the molecules.
Correct answer
B. Shielding effect of electrons.
Step-by-step solution
VBT says that overlapping of half-filled orbitals results in formation of bond. Formation of bond results in delocalization of e ⁻ and form partial ionic character.
