Chlorine (nucleus) has 1 lone pair and 3 polar-covalent bonding pairs (the shared pairs with O). Each oxygen (nucleus) has 3 lone pairs and 1 polar-covalent bonding pair (the shared pair with Cl)
How many bonding pairs and lone pairs of electrons does SF4 have?
bp-4,lp-1
What effect does a lone electron pair have on molecular shape?
The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
What determines the molecular geometry of a molecule?
Consider: Number of bonding domains on the central atom Number of non-bonding electron pairs (lone pairs) on the central atom
