VSEPR

In the world of chemistry, there's a theory so grand, It helps us understand molecules, you'll understand. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion, it's called, Predicting geometry, it's not too hard at all. Ronald Gillespie and Ronald Nyholm, they're the names, The brilliant minds who brought this theory to fame. They discovered that electron pairs, you see, Like to repel each other, they want to be free. The more repulsion there is, the less stable it gets, Energy rises, like a rocket that jets. So VSEPR predicts the geometry, That minimizes repulsion, so perfectly. But it's not just about repulsion, oh no, The Pauli exclusion principle, it's important to know. Electron-electron repulsion, it plays a big role, Determining molecular shape, it's in control. Through quantum chemical topology, we explore, The electron density of molecules, we adore. With methods like ELF and AIM, we can see, How VSEPR theory helps us understand chemistry. Random page: TKO Major League in 2019
