Abstract

The nature of the valence bond is traditionally attributed to the displacement of electronic orbitals in space between interacting atoms. At the same time, a number of experimental facts, in particular, the existence of four-dimensional structural symmetry between the filling of electron shells and periodical properties of elements require a change in the standard valence concept. A model in which valence bonds are caused by the resonant interaction between the shell electrons of one atom and the protons of another atom seems to be more adequate.
