🎯 Valence Bond Theory Explained – Sigma & Pi Bonds Made Simple!
Struggling to understand valence bond theory? This video breaks it down step-by-step — no memorising, just clear explanations. Learn how atoms bond using overlapping orbitals and how this leads to sigma (σ) and pi (π) bonds in molecules.

Perfect for students who want to actually get chemical bonding!

🧠 In this video, you’ll learn:

What valence bond theory is and how it works

How orbital overlap forms bonds

The difference between sigma and pi bonds

Why hybridisation matters in VB theory
