Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The Lewis structure, geometry, polarity and the hybridization of the interior atoms of the given molecule is to be identified.
Concept introduction: VSEPR theory predicts the geometry of the molecule using its electron pair surrounding the central atom.
Hybridization is a process in which two or more atomic orbital of nearly similar energy combine together to form the equal number of hybrid orbital of similar energy.
If the net dipole moment of the molecule is zero, the molecule is non polar in nature.
If the molecule has some net dipole moment than the molecule is polar in nature.
