linear, o-o-o **************2nd Opinion ************* Nope, it's bent. VSEPR theory predicts a double bond, a single bond, and a lone pair on the central oxygen atom. You can't really get linear out of that.
VSEPR notation is AX3E Tetra Pyramidal angle is 109.5 degrees sp3 hybridization VSEPR notation is AX3E Tetra Pyramidal angle is 109.5 degrees sp3 hybridization
The molecular geometry of this molecule is bent. Click on the related link for a Wikipedia article that contains a VSEPR table.
VSEPR theory
The molecular shape of SCl3F is trigonal bipyramidal, as predicted by the VSEPR theory.
According the VSEPR theory of molecular geometry, the geometry of SCl2 would be the same as H2O which is a bent angle
The most used method is VSEPR - Valence Shell Electrons Pair Repulsion.
Linear
The VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory provides information about both molecular shape and molecular bonding. It helps predict the geometric shapes of molecules based on the arrangement of electron pairs around the central atom and takes into account the repulsion between electron pairs to determine the overall molecular shape.
The molecular geometry associated with AB2 molecules according to VSEPR theory is linear. This means that the two bonding pairs are arranged in a straight line with a bond angle of 180 degrees.
The predicted structure for SiH4 based on VSEPR theory is tetrahedral. This is because silicon (Si) has four valence electrons and forms four single bonds with hydrogen atoms, resulting in a tetrahedral geometry where the bond angles are approximately 109.5 degrees.
The position of bonding atoms is determined by electron pair repulsion.
no, not all molecules obey the VSEPR theory, there is an exeption considered for the SIO2 molecules which obeys not the VSEPR theory
The molecular shape of Br2 in VSEPR theory is linear. This is because Br2 consists of two bromine atoms bonded together with a single bond, resulting in a linear geometry with a bond angle of 180 degrees.
VSEPR predict the geometry of a chemical molecule.
