Chapter 1, Problem 1.69P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation:

To predict the hybridization and geometry around each indicated atom.

Concept introduction:

Molecular geometry is the three dimensional shape that a molecule in space. It is determine by considering the central atom and the surrounding atom and electron pairs. The shape of the molecule is determined by using Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion method. Some of the most common shapes that can be determined by this method are linear, tetrahedral, trigonal planar and pyramidal.

For example.,

Linear (angle = 180o)

Trigonal planar (angle = 120o)

Tetrahedral (angle = 109.5o)

Hybridization is the concept of mixing atomic orbital into new hybrid orbitals suitable for the electron pairing to form chemical bonds and valence bonds in other words mixing of two new orbital having same energy and shape. The orbital is called the hybrid orbital and the process is the hybridization. For example mixing s-orbital and p-orbital to form new hybridization is called sp-hybridization.
