Lewis structures tell us the electron geometry of a molecule. The molecular geometry of a molecule is determined from its Lewis structure and VSEPR (valence shell electron pair repulsion) theory. The number of bonds and lone pair of electrons around the central atom of a molecule tell us its ...
Molecular geometry plays a critical role in the determination of dipole moment. The dipole moment is prominent when there is the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the central atom. Answer and Explanation:1 A. The geometry is tetrahedral. The v...
Indicate the hybridization of the central atom for the species: CO_3^{2-} Find the hybridization of central atoms for the following: BeCl2, BF3, SnCl2, CH4, NH3, H2O, PCl5, SF4, BrF3, XeF2, SF6, IF5, XeF4 Determine the molecular geometry of SCl...
Which of the following substances have permanent dipole-dipole forces? molecular AlBr3; PCl5; NO; SeF4 Explain why 2, 2-dimethylpropane (C_5H_{12}) has a lower boiling point (9.5 degrees C) than pentane (C_5H_{12}), which boils at 36.1 degrees C. Draw each mole...
