Answer
⚫Valence bond theory
◾The covalent bond is formed by overlapping of those orbital which contains unpaired electrons.
◾When the overlapping is along Axis, the overlapping becomes maximum and strong called as a sigma bond.
◾During overlapping the electron present in the valence Orbit must have opposite spin.
◾Covalent molecule have lower energy than combining atoms therefore resulting molecules are always stable.
