Each group around a central atom are located as far away as possible to do this?
what is minimize repulsions?
has 8 domains?
what is octahedral?
the molecular domain geometry of methane (CH4)
what is tetrahedral
the hybridization scheme for the carbon in HCOOH
what is sp2?
these are maximised which defines a molecules 3D shape
what are bond angles?
this has 2 LP and 2 BP
what is tetrahedral
this molecule exhibits bond angles of <<109.5
what is bent
order these from least to greatest repulsion:
LP and BP
BP and BP
LP and LP
BP and BP < LP and BP < LP and LP
lower-energy conformations result from havcing non-bonding electrons in these positions?
what are equatorial positions?
this molecule has 3 lone pairs and 2 bonding pairs
what is linear?
the number of domains from a central atom with an sp3d2 hybridization scheme.
what is 6 domains?
triple and double bonds place more of this on one side of the central atom than single bonds
what is electron density?
this molecule has BOTH <90 and <120 degree bond angles
what is trigonal bipyramidal
the amount of bonding pairs and lone pairs in an see-saw
what is 4 BP and 1 LP?
