Electrons in bonds are negatively charged and therefore repel each other. If you had a molecule of formula AB 4 , with A being the central atom, what would you predict the 3D shape to be to allow maximum distance between the four B atoms bonded to A? Some kind of tridimensional shape with A in the middle and B-A-B bond angles bigger than 90° A bidmensional shape like a "" sign where the B - A - B bond angles ate exactly 90 degrees

- Best Lewis Formula and Molecular Geometry A student writes the Lewis electron-dot formula for the carbonate anion, CO32, as a Does this Lewis formula obey the octet rule? Explain. What are the formal charges on the atoms? Try describing the bonding for this formula in valence bond terms. Do you have any difficulty doing this? b Does this Lewis formula give a reasonable description of the electron structure, or is there a better one? If there is a better Lewis formula, write it down and explain why it is better. c The same student writes the following resonance description for CO2: Is there something wrong with this description? (What would you predict as the geometries of these formulas?) d Is one or the other formula a better description?
