Valence Bond Theory, Hybrid Orbitals, and Molecular Orbital Theory

**IMPORTANT**\r
If youre watching on a mobile device, my annotations/corrections wont appear on screen, so I want to make sure everyone knows that at 0:16, 1:58, 2:12, and 2:40, I say molecular orbitals but I meant hybrid atomic orbitals. Also, for the molecular orbital diagram for N2, the pi 2p bonding orbitals should be below the sigma 2p bonding orbital due to s-p mixing. These are major errors so please make the correction in your head, sorry! Ive been much more careful about triple checking my work since these early videos, I promise.\r
--------------------------------------------\r
Alright, lets be real. Nobody understands molecular orbitals when they first take chemistry. You just pretend you do, and then in your next course you learn them a little better. And then a little better than that. And five years later you sort of understand them. So dont get discouraged! Just watch this for a head start and do your best.\r
