2 cards from this section. Quick, good the night before a test.
Define electron domain geometry.
Think about what governs the shape of molecules.
What does molecular geometry describe?
Remember, lone pairs are not included.
What is the electron domain geometry for a molecule with 3 bonding pairs and 1 lone pair?
What shape do you get with 4 pairs in total?
Molecular geometry only considers which of the following?
Remember what lone pairs do in VSEPR!
A molecule has four electron domains, one of which is a lone pair. Illustrate its molecular geometry and explain the impact of the lone pair on bond angles.
Consider how the presence of a lone pair changes spatial arrangement.
Explain how a change from a trigonal planar to a trigonal pyramidal structure affects the properties of the molecule.
Think about how the shape influences molecular interactions.
