What is a bond angle?
Refer to its role in defining molecular shape.
Name a molecule with a known bond angle.
Think of a common liquid with distinct angles.
What is the angle between the hydrogen atoms in a water molecule?
Recall the bent shape of water.
Is the bond angle in a linear molecule more or less than 180 degrees?
Think about how two atoms would be arranged in space.
Given the molecular formulas of sulfur dioxide (SO2) and carbon dioxide (CO2), compare their geometries and bond angles. Explain the reasoning behind their differences.
Consider the effect of lone pairs on sulfur.
Calculate the expected bond angles in a trigonal bipyramidal molecule, and explain how VSEPR theory applies in this context.
Visualize how the geometry arranges to reduce electron pair repulsions.
