O The two lone pairs of XeF2 occupy the equatorial positions. The angle between lone pairs is 180°, so there is less lone pair/lone pair repulsion with this arrangement. O The two lone pairs of XeF2 occupy the equatorial positions. The angle between lone pairs is 60°, so there is less lone pair/lone pair repulsion with this arrangement. O The three lone pairs of XeF2 occupy the equatorial positions. The angles between lone pairs are 120°, so there is less lone pair/lone pair repulsion with this arrangement. Submit

Use the VSEPR model to predict the bond angles around each central atom in the following Lewis structures (benzene rings are frequently pictured as hexagons, without the letter for the carbon atom at each vertex). Note that the drawings do not necessarily depict the bond angles correctly.

Why is it less clear to see the electrons on HBrO2 molecular electron geometry than it is on something like H2O? I know there should be 20 electrons on HBrO2, but this leads me to an incorrect drawing. And with the correct drawing, I don't see where all the electrons are. It seems like there's only 10 total. What am I missing here?

Draw the 2D and the 3D Lewis structure for each molecule. You do not need to show resonance structures here. Determine the electron pair geometry (EPG), the molecular geometry (MG), the bond angle (BA) around the central atom, and the hybridization of the central or bold atom. Circle the formula of any polar molecule. For molecules with more than one central atom (e.g. ??3??2??) give the structure around the bold atom.

Please fill in the blank ! In part B, the difference is that the molecules have more than one atom with two or more attached neighbors. As molecules become larger and more complex, VSEPR theory does not attempt to create names for the overall geometries that result. Instead, we continue to consider the geometry about one central atom at a time. By giving the arrangement about each such atom in the larger structure, we can generate enough information to develop an overall picture. Thus, in your report for part B, you should determine which atoms have more than one bound neighbor, then repeat the procedure for part A. When deciding whether the molecules in part B are polar or nonpolar, focus on the molecule as a whole, not the geometry about a single atom. If the molecule is polar, draw a dipole arrow on your sketch indicating polarity.
