Molecular Geometry
This is the number of electron domains in BF3.
What is three?
These are types of bonds in which electrons are shared equally between two atoms
What are nonpolar (pure) covalent bonds?
This is the type of electron domains found on the central atom in NO2-.
What is one lone pair and two bonded atoms?
This is the bond angle produced in a linear molecular geometry.
What is 180 degrees?
This shows the two dimensional arrangement of electrons in a molecule.
What is a Lewis structure?
Type of bond in which electrons are shared unequally between two atoms
What are polar covalent bonds?
This is the number of electron domains on the central atom in SF2.
What is four?
This is the shape that has 110 degree bond angles with one lone pair
What is trigonal pyramidal?
According to the VSEPR model, electron domains orient themselves to minimize these.
What are electrostatic repulsions?
The name of the electrostatic attractive force between cations and anions resulting from a transfer of electrons.
What is an ionic bond?
This is the number of electron domains on the central atom in ClF3.
What is five?
This is the bond angle produced in BF3.
What is 120 degrees?
This is the period on the periodic table that molecules with expanded valence shells begin to appear.
What is the third period?
Partial negative charges and partial positive charges exist in these type of molecules due to an imbalance of electron density.
What are polar?
This is the type of electron domain found on the central atom in BrF4-.
What is four bonded atoms and two lone pairs?
These are the two bond angles found in a trigonal bipyramidal molecule.
What are 120 and 90 degrees?
This qualifies a molecule as being a free radical
