Question
Chapter 10, Problem 15E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The bond angles for each of the given geometries are to be given.
Concept Introduction: The shape of the molecules is predicted by valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory and Lewis model.
Bond angle is the angle between the electron groups.
The molecules obey the octet rule in which each atom has eight electrons in the valence shell. In the molecule, the total number of electron groups around the central atom is equal to the sum of lone pairs, single bond, double bond and triple bond around the central atom.
