- Bonding in $CO_2$
- $:\ddot O = C =\ddot{O} {:}$
- Electrostatic potential energy model
- $E_{e l} \propto \frac{Q_1 \times Q_2}{d}$
- $E_{e l}$ becomes negative as the particles approach each other
- If $A^{+}$ is approaching $B^{-}$ , there is attraction between them and the energy is decreased
