  5. Molecular Shapes Lewis structures show which atoms are connected where, and by how many bonds, but they don't properly show 3-D shapes of molecules. To find the actual shape of a molecule, first draw the Lewis structure, and then use VSEPR Theory.

  6. Valence Shell Electron-Pair Repulsion Theory or VSEPR Molecular Shape is determined by the repulsions of electron pairs Electron pairs around the central atom stay as far apart as possible. Electron Pair Geometry - based on number of regions of electron density Consider non-bonding (lone pairs) as well as bonding electrons. Electron pairs in single, double and triple bonds are treated as single electron clouds. Molecular Geometry - based on the electron pair geometry, this is the shape of the molecule

  7. Electron-group Repulsions And The Five Basic Molecular Shapes.

  8. The Single Molecular Shape Of The Linear Electron-group Arrangement. Examples: CS2, HCN, BeF2

  9. Class Shape The Two Molecular Shapes Of The Trigonal Planar Electron-group Arrangement. Examples: SO2, O3, PbCl2, SnBr2 Examples: SO3, BF3, NO3-, CO32-

  10. 1220 Effect of Double Bonds 1160 real Factors Affecting Actual Bond Angles Bond angles are consistent with theoretical angles when the atoms attached to the central atom are the same and when all electrons are bonding electrons of the same order. 1200 larger EN 1200 ideal greater electron density

  11. Effect of Nonbonding Pairs Factors Affecting Actual Bond Angles Lone pairs repel bonding pairs more strongly than bonding pairs repel each other 950

  15. Let’s Review VSEPR Theory • Predicts the molecular shape of a bonded molecule • Electrons around the central atom arrange themselves as far apart from each other as possible • Unshared pairs of electrons (lone pairs) on the central atom repel the most • So only look at what is connected to the central atom

  16. Redneck Innovations: When you gotta go…..

  17. Let’s Consider a Few More Examples:6 Types of Molecules with no Unshared Pairs of Electrons

  18. Linear • 2 atoms attached to central atom • 0 unshared pairs (lone pairs) • Bond angle = 180o • Type: AB2 • Ex. : BeF2

  19. 3 exceptions to the octet rule • Molecules with an odd number of electrons • Molecules with atoms near the boundary between metals and nonmetals will tend to have less than an octet on the central atom. (i.e. B, Be, Al, Ga) • Molecules with a central atom with electrons in the 3rd period and beyond will sometimes have more than an octet on the central atom, up to 12, called an extended or expanded octet.

  20. Linear • Carbon dioxide CO2

  21. Trigonal Planar • 3 atoms attached to central atom • 0 lone pairs • Bond angle = 120o • Type: AB3 • Ex. : AlF3

  24. Tetrahedral • 4 atoms attached to central atom • 0 lone pairs • Bond angle = 109.5o • Type: AB4 • Ex. : CH4

  25. Tetrahedral • Carbon tetrachloride CCl4

  26. TrigonalBipyramidal • 5 atoms attached to central atom • 0 lone pairs • Bond angle = • equatorial -> 120o • axial -> 90o • Type: AB5 • Ex. : PF5
