Consider a molecule AB, where element A has 6 valence electrons and B has 7 valence electrons. If the AEn for each bond = 1.2, predict the shape, bond hybridization and polarity (polar or non-polar) of the molecule. Your answer should follow the format: a) number of total electrons for bonding; b) Steric Number and Lone Pairs; c) name of shape based on the VSEPR chart, d) bond hybridization and e) molecular polarity.

Consider the following flat drawing of methane (CH4) . a. What is HCH bond angle implied by this drawing if you assume it is flat? b. Are the electron domains of this flat CH4 spread out as much as possible? c. Use model materials to make a model of CH4 (methane). If you assembled it correctly, thefour bonds (bonding electron domains) of your model will be 109.5° apart. d.
