Write the name of the compound , geometric shape and indicate if it is polar or nonpolar. PF3 HCN H2S CCl4 CO2 CH4 CH2O HFarrow_forwardWrite the Lewis structure for the following molecule. State the electronic structure (shape based on electron pairs or bonds) AND the geometric structure (shape based on the atoms only). Include all valence electrons in your structure. State how many electrons are used to form covalent bonds in the molecule. Is the molecule polar? H_2Sarrow_forwardII. Complete the table below. Compound Molecular Geometry Molecule Polarity 1. НCСI 2. H2S 3. CH4 4. N2 Dipole moment of CO2 5. Н2О Take note that bond polarity and molecule polarity are not the same. The presence of polar bonds does not automatically make a molecule polar. The geometry of the molecule also plays an important role. This can be seen in CO2 wherein the electronegativity difference of C and O is 1.0. This equal distribution of polar bonds makes the molecule non- polar.arrow_forward
