What is molecular geometry CO2?
Linear
CO2 molecular geometry?
linear O=C=O
The hybridization of the valence electrons on the carbon atom in CO2 is The electron pair geometry is and the shape of the molecule is?
sp, linear, linear
What is the molecular geometry for CO2?
The molecule of carbon dioxide is linear: O=C=O.
What is the proper geometry for CO2?
Carbon dioxide is linear, with the carbon in the middle. If I remember my group theory properly, that's Dinfinityv. But no promises on that.
What is molecular geometry CO2?
Linear
Do CO2 and so2 have the same geometry?
No, CO2 has a linear geometry while SO2 has a bent (angular) geometry. This is due to the difference in the number and arrangement of atoms around the central atom.
CO2 molecular geometry?
linear O=C=O
Why geometry of h2o is not linear whereas co2 is linear?
That is related to the relative positions of the orbitals involved.

What is the molecular geometry for CO2?
The molecule of carbon dioxide is linear: O=C=O.
What is the molecular geometry of CSe2?
CSe2, carbon dislenide, would have the same molecular geometry as CO2 (carbon dioxide), and that would be linear. Each carbon would be sp hybridized. Se=C=Se
What is the molecular geometry of HI?

Which two of the following compounds have a tetrahedral arrangement of all the electrons about the central atom MgCl2 NH3 CO2 H2O?
NH3 and H2O have a tetrahedral arrangement of all the electrons about the central atom. MgCl2 and CO2 have different arrangements: MgCl2 adopts a linear geometry due to Mg's +2 charge and Cl's -1 charge, while CO2 has a linear molecular geometry due to its linear molecule shape.
What is the electron pair geometry for CO2?
It is a linear molecule, carbon atom forms two double bonds at an angle of 180o O=C=O
Molecular shape of carbon dioxide?
Linear
