specific geometries of molecules
1
Q
the two type of geometries are
A
Electron pair (VESPR) geometries and Molecular geometries
2
Q
Electron pair (VESPR) geometries
A
NO LONE PAIRS
includes the basic shapes: linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal bipyramidal, octahedral
3
Q
Molecular geometries
A
CONSIDERS LONE PAIRS
Depending on how many sets of lone pairs there are (1-4)
