Identify the true statement(s) about the valence bond theory. 1. The strength of a bond depends on the amount of overlap between the two orbitals of the bonding atoms. 2. The greater the overlap between two bonding atoms, the lesser the bond strength. 3. Orbitals bond in the directions in which they protrude or point to obtain maximum overlap

The strength of a bond depends on the amount of overlap between the two orbitals of the bonding atoms

Orbitals bond in the directions in which they protrude or point to obtain maximum overlap

Explanation:

The valence bond theory was proposed by Linus Pauling. Compounds are firmed by overlap of atomic orbitals to attain a favourable overlap integral. The better the overlap integral (extent of overlap) the better or stringer the covalent bond.

Orbitals overlap in directions which ensure a maximum overlap of atomic orbitals in the covalent bond.

in cartography, a contour line (often just called a "contour") joins points of equal elevation (height) above a given level, such as mean sea level. a contour map is a map illustrated with contour lines, for example a topographic map, which thus shows valleys and hills, and the steepness or gentleness of slopes.
