Why is the acronym VSEPR pronounced “vesper”? The answer to that question is the only thing not revealed in part one of this program, which takes a look at the VSEPR theory, non-bonding electron pairs, polarity, and dipoles. In part two, a “cow-chicken” and other experts elucidate the theories of hybrid orbital and molecular orbital overlap and illustrate how to determine bond order. (18 minutes)
