Chapter 9 - Molecular Geometry and Bonding Theories: Part 2 of 10

preview_player
Показать описание
In this video I’ll teach you more about molecules’ molecular geometries (shapes) and will further explain the difference between molecular geometry and electron-domain geometry. I’ll also discuss the effect of lone-pair electrons on molecules’ shapes, and I’ll show you how to use a molecule’s shape to determine if it is polar or nonpolar.

Sir, I just don't feel like mugging up those shapes and bond angles...isn't there any kind of short cut....and no matter how much i understand I just have to mug it up all up at the end of the day....and in exam questions come like predict the shape of XeF^3+ or ClF3...so how will I be able to learn soooo many examples of a certain shape. And this mugging up is the stuff bcz of which I don't feel like studying this specific topic. For figuring out hybridization at least have a formula....but for this....What shud I there any formula? Cuz I just don't wanna mug up....

when im counting the nonbonding domains. i only look for the domains around the central atom?

5:39 there is mistake about the lone pair

Doesn't ClF3 have 2 sets of lone pairs, hence making the electron geometry shape trigonal bipyramidal and not octahedral as you said?
