What is Valence Bond Theory Overview about?

(1) According to the valence bond theory proposed by Heitler and London in 1927, a covalent bond is formed by the overlap of two atomic orbitals containing electrons of opposite spin. (2) This overlap creates a single bond orbital occupied by both electrons. The electrons in the bond orbital have opposite spins. (3) The theory was later extended by Pauling and Slater in 1931 to explain that orbital overlap leads to a release of energy and a more stable molecule with lower energy than the isolated atoms.
