A. VSEPR Theory n Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory n Electron pairs orient

A. VSEPR Theory n Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory n Electron pairs orient themselves in order to minimize repulsive forces.

A. VSEPR Theory n Types of e- Pairs · Bonding pairs - form bonds

A. VSEPR Theory n Types of e- Pairs · Bonding pairs - form bonds · Lone pairs - nonbonding e- Lone pairs repel more strongly than bonding pairs!!!

A. VSEPR Theory n Lone pairs reduce the bond angle between atoms. Bond Angle

A. VSEPR Theory n Lone pairs reduce the bond angle between atoms. Bond Angle

B. Determining Molecular Shape n Draw the Lewis Diagram. n Tally up e- pairs

B. Determining Molecular Shape n Draw the Lewis Diagram. n Tally up e- pairs on central atom. · double/triple bonds = ONE pair n Shape is determined by the # of bonding pairs and lone pairs. Know the 8 common shapes & their bond angles!
