Q

How do you determine the hybridization of an atom?

A

By counting the number of “things” around it. By things I mean, another atom or a lone pair of e-

Q

difference between the E- domain geometry and molecular geom?

A
  • *e- included in shape = e- domain geom

* *e- NOT included in shape= molecular geometry
