1 At the end of this lesson, students should be able to : (a) Explain Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory (VSEPR) (b) Draw the basic molecular shapes: linear, planar, tetrahedral, and octahedral. (c) Predict and explain the shapes of molecule and bond angles in a given species.

2 .. :F.. - N - F:.. :F:.... Lewis structure No. of e surrounding a Assumption: e pairs/bonding pair in the valence shell repel one another VSEPR!! Study of molecular geometry Gives the position of all atoms

3 - The 3D arrangement of atoms in a molecule. - affects physical and chemical properties. - predicted by using Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) model. - The study of molecular geometry states The valence electron pairs surrounding a repel one another. Thus, the orbital containing those electron pairs are oriented to be as far apart as possible.

4 Divide molecules into 2 categories: Central atom has No Lone Pairs.... O = C = O.... Central atom has 1 Lone Pairs : F - N - F :.... : F :..

29 Predicting Molecular Geometry 1. Draw Lewis structure for molecule. 2. Count number of lone pairs on the and number of atoms bonded to the. 3. Use VSEPR to predict the geometry of the molecule. e.g: What are the molecular geometries of SO 2 and SF 4? O S O F AB 2 E bent F S F F AB 4 E distorted tetrahedron

30 Excercise: Use the VSEPR model to predict the geometry of the following molecules and ions: a)c 2 H 4 b) OF 2 c) AlCl - 4 d) AsH 3
