Question:
does pairing depend on strength of the ligand in valence bond theory
Answer:
Valence bond structures are similar to Lewis structures, except where a single Lewis structure is insufficient, several valence bond structures can be used. It is in this aspect of valence bond theory that we see the concept of resonance. Thus, it depends on the presence and position of lone pair of electrons.
