Basic Overview
1. According to VSEPR theory, how will the lone pairs and bonded atoms try to arrange themselves (close
together, far apart, in a line, etc.)?
2. In a geometry drawing, how do you show bonds coming toward you, away from you, and to the sides?
3. Do a geometry drawing for QX4, which has one X going away, one coming toward, and two on the side.
4. Name the molecular shape of each type of compound listed below (use your notes):
a. AB b. AB2 c. AB3 d. AB4
Molecular Geometry
5. Without making a Lewis structure, predict the shape of the following molecules:
a. NF3 b. CF4 c. SF2 d. H2O
7. Use the Lewis structure you created to determine the actual geometry (shape) of each molecule:
a. NF3 b. CF4 c. SF2 d. H2O
11. Use the Lewis structure you created to determine the actual geometry (shape) of
each molecule:
a. SnCl4 b. CO2 c. CCl4 d. HCN
13. Without making a Lewis structure, predict the shape of the following molecules:
a. GeO2 b. SiH4 c. TeCl2
15. Use the Lewis structure you created to determine the actual geometry (shape) of each molecule:
a. GeO2 b. SiH4 c. TeCl2
