The electronic geometry about the carbon atom is: tetrahedral The orbital hybridization about the carbon atom is: sp^3 The molecular geometry about the carbon atom is: tetrahedral
C2H4Cl2 (dichloroethane) has tetrahedral geometry around both carbon atoms.
The molecular geometry of the compound CO32- is trigonal planar. It has a single atom of carbon bound to three atoms of oxygen.
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.
Carbon trioxide?..or Carbonate with a 2-? If Carbonate, then it is trigonal planar.
