What Does BOM Stand For?

BOM stands for Bond Orbital Model

The Bond Orbital Model (BOM) is a theoretical framework used in chemistry to describe the bonding between atoms in molecules. It emphasizes the role of atomic orbitals in forming covalent bonds, illustrating how these orbitals overlap and combine to create hybridized states. BOM aids in predicting molecular geometry, bond properties, and reactivity by providing a visual and mathematical approach to understanding electron distribution and molecular structure.
