What is the difference between a lone pair and a bonding electron?
A lone pair has two e- ocuppying the same orbital, while a bonding e- is a single unpaired e-, that can be shared or exchanged with another atom.

What is the geometric shape, given the general formula AX3?
What is trigonal planar

Generally, all angular VSPER diagrams are polar or non-polar?
What is polar?

Explain the Octect Rule.
The Octet Rule- the idea that a max of 8 e- can occupy orbitals in the valence of an atom. An orbital may be unoccupied or contain one or more e-.

Electron repulsion is greatest between two ???????, is less between a lone pair and a bonding pair, and is lowest between two ???????? .
What is two lone pairs and two bonding pairs

Explain the difference between covalnet, ionic & metallic bonds
Covalent- share e-, neither compound wins e- Ionic- electron transfer occurs, resulting in a postive ion and negative ion Metallic- network of positive metal ions and a sea of e-

Define the term crystal lattice.
A continuous 3-D pattern of atoms, ions, or molecules in a crystal lattice structure.
300
How many lone pairs and bonding pairs does a VSEPR shape AX2E2 have?
What is 2 lone pairs and 2 bonding pairs.

What is the bonding capacity of C?
What is 4?

What is a meniscus?
A Meniscus is the curve in the upper surface of a liquid close to the surface of the container or another object, caused by surface tension. We use the bottom of the curve of meniscus for measuring the amount of liquid in a container.
