The idea of a "central science" is a meme.

All sciences are one. We are forced to separate the disciplines because of our small minds.

If any of them can be called central, it is without a doubt mathematics.

Mathematics proceeded all sciences. It pervades all sciences, and allows every science to continue moving forward. It is the most abstract, and therefore objective, language we have.

It is again, without a doubt, the most the closest thing to a central science in existence.

irrelevant. the fact that you think it COULD be a central science when it's not a science shows your stupidity enough.
>he most abstract, and therefore objective
why are you so retarded? words have meaning you know, you can't just throw them into a sentence randomly and expect to make sense.

The flaws in valence bond theory are usually solved by molecular orbital theory.

The reason they teach valence bond theory is because it is an easier way to understand chemistry I suppose.

You have to take pretty advanced thermodynamics classes to get your chem degree. Not to mention you also have a chemistry-tailored modern physics course as well.

At least at my university, but I go to UConn which is nothing special.
