  1. Section 2:VSEPR Theory&Molecular Structure and Polarity Note: Each student is to receive a molecular geometry handout

  2. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory: VSEPR The shape of a molecule may be predicted by the number of atoms and un-bonded electrons that surround an atom.

  3. Linear: Bond Angle: 180 degrees Lone Pairs of Electrons = 0

  4. Trigonal Planar Bond Angle = 120 degrees Lone Pairs of electrons = 0

  5. Tetrahedral Bond Angle = 109.5 degrees Lone Pairs of electrons = 0

  6. Triganol bipyramidal Bond Angle = 90 degrees and 120 degrees Lone Pairs of electrons = 0

  7. Octahedral Bond Angle = 90 degrees Lone pairs of electrons = 0

  8. square pyramidal

  9. distorted tetrahedron

  10. pyramidal

  11. nonlinear

  12. square planar

  13. T-shaped

  14. Bent

  15. Bond Polarity: When molecules develop charged sides because one atom is pulling harder on the valence electron than the other. Finding the bond polarity: Step 1: Find the electronegativities of each atom. Atoms with higher electronegativites pull harder on the electrons in bonding. Step 2: Draw arrows to the atoms with the higher electronegativities. Example: Water

  16. Find the Lewis Dot Structure, polarity, and geometry for each: • NF3 3) CH3I 2) CO2

  17. Activity: Find the Lewis Dot Structure, Geometric shape and Polarity. • H2O 2) NCl3 3) SiO2 4) CF4 *5) SF6 *6) NH3

  18. Extras • CCl4 • AsBr3 • XeF4

  19. Geometry Quiz: Find the Lewis dot structure, geometry, and polarity (20pts) • NF3 • SeH2 • CH4 • SiO2

  20. Molecular Geometry Quiz (5 pts each): Draw the lewis dot structure, draw the polarities, & name the structure • CBr4 • CS2 • NHCl2
