Question
Can you help me with the H2S step-by-step for number (Step 6)? I need help with the central atom surrounded by an identical electron group. I need help with the molecule polar.
A₁ B₂E₂=AB₂E₂
Molecular Shape of H₂S
Step 1: Find the Central Atom
Central atom is: S
AB₁E3
Look your line bond structure on
page 1.
AB₂E
H
H
Step 3: Choose the ABE classification
Circle the correct AB,Ey notation.
Recall, we use (A) to represent the
central atom, (B) to represent the
number of atoms bonded to the central
atom, and (E) to represent the number
of lone pairs
AB3E
(1) S Central atom A
AB₁E₂ AB₁E
AB₂E2 AB₂
AB3
Qlone
AB4
(2) H B (atom surrounding central atom)
E
pair
Step 5: Use the Molecular Shape
table from your notes to draw the
ball and stick representation
H
Step 2:
Count number of atoms bonded to the central
atom (B)
# of atoms bonded to central atom = B =
Count number of lone pairs on the
central atom (E)
# of lone pairs on central atom = E=
2
Step 4: Use the Molecular Shape Table from
your notes to select the molecular shape and
bond angles.
Molecular Shape- Bent
=~110°
Bond angles =
2
Step 6: Determine Polarity
Is the central atom surrounded by identical
electron groups?
Circle one: yes
no
If the answer was yes, then the molecule is
nonpolar. If the answer is no, then the molecule
is polar.
Is the molecule polar?
Circle one: yes no
