Question
Chapter 10.3, Problem 13PP
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Interpret the shape of the molecule consists of central atom having 4 electron group and 4 bonded atom.
Concept Introduction:
The shape of a molecule can be determined with the help of VSEPR model in which lewis structure of the molecule is drawn which shows the arrangement of surrounding atoms around the central atom.
The shape of molecule is decided by counting the lone pair of electron along with bond pair and thus the shape of molecule is decided. Shape of molecule can be decided as:
| Bond pair | Lone pair | Geometry of molecule |
| 2 | 0 | Linear |
| 3 | 0 | Trigonal planar |
| 2 | 1 | Bent |
| 4 | 0 | Tetrahedral |
| 3 | 1 | Trigonal pyramidal |
| 2 | 2 | Bent |
| 5 | 0 | Trigonal bipyramidal |

Comment on the relation between the bond angles expected based on hybridization an d the bond angles expected for a three-member ring. (b) Is the molecule polar? Based on the electrostatic poten1ial map shown below. where do the neg-alive and positive charges lie in the molecule? Polarity: It is a well separation of electric charge leading to a molecule or chemical compounds having an electrical dipole moment. Generally the polar molecules must contain polar bonds due to a different in electronegative between the bonded atoms. The electrostatic potential map clearly to explain, the oxygen atom has more negative () charge and other side has less positive () charge, so this molecule is a more polar nature.arrow_forward
