       hybridisation

       He is a friend, so I decided to share...
       ''There is so much experimental evidence that it is
       overwhelming. In the molecule B10 H16 experimentally determined
       by Dr. William Lipscomb of the Universityof kentucky and the
       harvard, Hydrogen bonds to two boron atoms. The single electron
       theory, the Bohr theory cannot explain this, nor can any Lewis
       structure. When they draw it, they cop out and use dots to
       connect the atoms usually. Hydrogen bonding in water is another
       great example,Hydrogen bonds to two Oxygen atoms in it- they
       again use dots torepresent a bond they cannot represent with
       classic Lewis structures. My book is How To Draw Molecules
       Without Using Molecular Orbital Theory Or Hybridization. I mean
       it, there are no molecular orbitals!''

       I hate molecular orbitals!
