Benzene is commonly regarded as a resonance hybrid ofthe two Kekule structures. but other possible structures canalso contribute. Draw three other structures in which thereare only covalent n bonds (al lowing for bonding betweensome non-adjacent C atoms) and two structures in whichthere is one ionic bond. Why may these structures be ignoredin simple descriptions of the molecule?
(a) Determine the molecular geometry of SeF4using the VSEPR model. The molecular geometry of SeF4 is (___________________) linear or trigonal planar or bent tetrahedral or trigonal pyramidal or trigonal bipyramidal or seesaw or T-shaped or octahedral or square pyramidal or square planar . (b) Explain why the molecular geometry of SeF4 is different from that of IBr3, although they have similar electron-domain geometries. Although both SeF4 and IBr3 have the electron-domain geometry of (_________________) linear or trigonal planar or bent tetrahedral or trigonal pyramidal or trigonal bipyramidal or seesaw or T-shaped or octahedral or square pyramidal or square planar, IBr3 has _____ lone pair(s) of electrons whereas SeF4 has only ________ lone electron pair(s) in the (______________) axial or equatorial positions. Accordingly, the molecular geometry of SeF4 is (________________) linear or trigonal planar or bent tetrahedral or trigonal pyramidal or trigonal bipyramidal or seesaw or…
