Small structural changes cause large changes in physical (and chemical) properties Brooks/ole Brooks/ole 2 Using Molecular Models Physical models of 3D-structures: omputer versions: ball and stick space filling Using Molecular Models and-drawn molecules: In the plane of the screen Going back into the screen oming out of the screen 2008 Brooks/ole Brooks/ole 4 1.! e - pairs stay as far apart as possible to minimize repulsions. 2.! The shape of a molecule is governed by the number of bonds and lone pairs present. 3.! Treat a multiple bond like a single bond when determining a shape. Each is a single e-group. 4.! Lone pairs occupy more volume than bonds. Linear Triangular planar Tetrahedral Triangular bipyramidal ctahedral 2008 Brooks/ole Brooks/ole 6 1

2 Basic shapes that minimize repulsions: linear triangular planar tetrahedral triangular bipyramidal If the molecule contains:! only bonding pairs the angles shown are correct.! lone pair/bond mixtures the angles change a little.!! lone pair/lone pair repulsions are largest.!! lone pair/bond pair are intermediate in strength.!! bond/bond interactions are the smallest. octahedral A molecule may be described by its:! electron-pair (e-pair) geometry! molecular geometry These two geometries may be different.!
