The physical concept that forms the premise of VSEPR theory is as follows:

  • The central atom forms covalent bonds with other atoms and this involves sharing of electrons.
  • For a molecule to be highly stable, it should have minimum energy.
  • The electron pairs surrounding the central atom repel each other and move very far from each other so that there are no further repulsions between them. Therefore, the molecule has least energy and maximum stability.
