![]() Plus this isn’t the first time SM has gone back and added a member and I don’t believe it will but the last outside of NCT. Also I don’t care what anybody say ice cream cake was her motherfucking era debut Yeri popped off rightfully so. Regardless of the pure truth I’m happy she was added she really round the group out, especially in terms of vocally I felt like adding her created more of an even shift from the main vocal to sub. But Seulgi said she never ever thought Yeri was going to be in the group and was excited when she found out that she was being added. A lot of say it was because her age that she wasn’t added and that her parents rejected her being added for debut. I assume the company went back to the drawing board and decided to add Yeri. Since the debut had mixed reviews and the remake of SES’s Be Natural didn’t pop off either (both good as fuck esp that remake.) I assume because They did not like the concept, they were tired of waiting, or the girls just realize idol life was not what they wanted anymore. Sebelum Yeri sudah ada beberapa member Red Velvet yang ikut terjun ke dunia akting seperti Irene yang baru-baru ini membintangi film Double Patty bersama Shin Seung Ho. Yeri donned an all-black outfit with a white handbag as an accent. Dengan beraktingnya Yeri di Drama Stage 2021: Mint Condition, menandakan bahwa dia sudah resmi menjadi idol sekaligus aktris. She was to attend a press conference for her drama, Bitch And Rich At the airport, she turned the concrete pavements into her personal runway. Because back in the 2014 SM Town documentary Seulgi and Irene kept mentioning how their debut kept being pushed back because girls were leaving left and right. Red Velvet ’s Yeri recently headed to the airport to fly out to Singapore. I believe that originally another girl was suspected to be in the group but left really close to debut preparation so they just decided to go with 4 instead. If that was truly the reason I'm glad they stopped after Yeri because I also ult NCT and the fandom drama that comes with every new member/unit is really not worth it sometimes □ (Not because I don't like any new members! It's that the fandom headache that always comes with it is a pain to see.)ĭon't have sources for these but I've seen them repeated a bunch of times over the years □♀️ I've also heard the rotation concept one and you can see the other Rookies girls in Happiness, too. Yeri was 17 Korean age / 16 international when she was added. ![]() Like you said, SM usually debuts them young. She was reportedly LSM's favorite but since RV already debuted, and she'd be "old" by the time the next girl group was ready, they killed two birds with one stone by adding Yeri - she got to debut, and also lowered RV's average age which was on the high side for a rookie girl group (they were 24, 21, 21, 19 Korean age / 23, 20, 20, 17 international age at debut). It specifically went beyond stage talent - she got a lot of buzz for her visuals and charisma as well. ![]() But with fans claiming that Min HeeJin’s muse was a 15-year-old Brooke Shields for f(x)'s Krystal when she just turned 18 and working with idols when they were minors like SHINee’s Taemin, NCT’s Jisung and Red Velvet’s Yeri, fans are calling for her removal as the creative director of NewJeans.One commonly accepted explanation I've heard in the fandom is that while Yeri was passed over for RV debut for whatever reason she was considered a "complete" trainee and debut-ready when the Rookies girls were doing showcases. Weverse is launching a new version of their app just for the girls’ aesthetics impressing everyone with NewJeans’ influence. They became the fourth-gen girl group with the highest first-day pre-orders with 81k copies even beating the likes of aespa and Itzy. ![]() NewJeans is under HYBE’s subsidiary label ADOR run by Min HeeJin. However, with the youngest of the NewJeans members being 14, HeeJin’s comments that fans felt had pedophilic undertones and supposed sexualization of minors in her concepts are making fans uncomfortable. Creative director Min HeeJin was further a catalyst in their rise to fame as she has been responsible for several popular comebacks of SHINee, Red Velvet and NCT Dream back when she worked with SM Entertainment. From their playful concepts and fun performance teasers, the girl group amassed a huge fan following instantly. NewJeans is the latest K-pop girl group set to debut under HYBE that had fans excited. ![]() ![]() ![]() Tap the settings menu above the scan window and select Document Feeder in the Source menu.

Step 2: Determine the hybridization of any atoms with lone pairs (heteroatoms). Step 1: Add any missing lone pair electrons to the heteroatoms (atoms other than carbon and hydrogen). LiE+ pHE+ EMOnBHH H E+ -O We need to discuss the nucleophilicityof sigma bonds more broadly. To identify the orbitals of the lone pair electrons in non-aromatic compounds, we can follow a two-step approach. If all things are equal then C-C and C-H sigma bonds should be the least reactive type of nucleophiles but if we replace C with Li to make a C-Li bond then the bonds became exquisitely reactive. For the first ten chapters of this text, we will only focus on non-aromatic compounds. In the future, we will learn that some lone pair electrons on heteroatoms of rings can occupy p orbitals to create aromaticity. Un-hybridized p orbitals create pi bonds perpendicular to this sigma framework. The sigma bonds create the "framework" that holds all the atoms together as a molecule or ion. Hybridized orbitals create sigma bonds and hold lone pairs. Identifying the orbitals of lone pair electrons is one situation. There are situations in which we will want to integrate molecular orbital and valence bond theories. Needs multiple structures to describe resonance Predicts the arrangement of electrons in molecules While resonance, its bond participates in resonance because it (and not the lone pair) is in the plane perpendicular to the molecule. For example, in pyridine, the nitrogen has lone pair as well as is attached with a bond. Predicts molecular shape based on the number of regions of electron density It means that only one, either bond or lone pair will participate in resonance if the atom has both. They can be identified by using a Lewis structure. ![]() Lone pairs are found in the outermost electron shell of atoms. Comparison of Bonding Theories Valence Bond TheoryĬonsiders bonds as localized between one pair of atomsĬonsiders electrons delocalized throughout the entire moleculeĬreates bonds from overlap of atomic orbitals ( s, p, d…) and hybrid orbitals ( sp, sp 2, sp 3…)Ĭombines atomic orbitals to form molecular orbitals (σ, σ*, π, π*)Ĭreates bonding and antibonding interactions based on which orbitals are filled In chemistry, a lone pair refers to a pair of valence electrons that are not shared with another atom in a covalent bond 1 and is sometimes called an unshared pair or non-bonding pair. The bonding theories are reviewed in greater detail in the next two sections. We will use both theories and often blend them to analyze and predict chemical structure and reactivity. Both theories provide different, useful ways of describing molecular structure. The table below summarizes the main points of the two complementary bonding theories. Valence Bond and Molecular Orbital Theories identify the orbitals occupied by lone pair electrons. ![]() The fourth sp 3 hybrid orbital contains the two electrons of the lone pair and is not directly involved in bonding.\) The three N-H sigma bonds of NH 3 are formed by sp 3(N)-1s(H) orbital overlap. sp Hybrid Orbitals in BeH The Lewis structure shows that the beryllium in BeH2 makes 2 bonds and has no lone pairs. The four sp 3 hybrid orbitals of nitrogen orientate themselves to form a tetrahedral geometry. Note! This bonding configuration was predicted by the Lewis structure of NH 3. The three unpaired electrons in the hybrid orbitals are considered bonding and will overlap with the s orbitals in hydrogen to form N-H sigma bonds. These electrons will be represented as a lone pair on the structure of NH 3. The two electrons in the filled sp 3 hybrid orbital are considered non-bonding because they are already paired. The electron configuration of nitrogen now has one sp 3 hybrid orbital completely filled with two electrons and three sp 3 hybrid orbitals with one unpaired electron each. After hybridization these five electrons are placed in the four equivalent sp 3 hybrid orbitals. The nitrogen in NH 3 has five valence electrons. ![]() ![]() I was inspired and motivated by their loyalty to the job, the industry, their family. They showed up every morning and did their work.
