Select all the statements that correctly explain why lone pairs prefer to occupy equatorial positions in a system with five electron domains.

A lone pair in an equatorial position has more space. There is less repulsion between electron domains in equatorial positions.

Which of the following statements correctly describe the VSEPR model? Select all that apply.

According to this model, the valence electrons around a central atom are located as far from each other as possible. The VSEPR model is used to predict the geometry of a covalently bonded species. A Lewis structure is necessary in order to apply the VSEPR model.

An octahedral geometry indicates that there are six electron domains. A system with three electron domains will have a trigonal planar electron-domain arrangement.

Select all the statements that correctly describe how to determine the molecular shape of a species using VSEPR.

If unshared electron pairs are present, the molecular geometry will differ from the electron-domain geometry. Use the molecular formula to draw the Lewis structure. The total number of shared and unshared electron pairs around the central atom gives the electron-domain geometry.

True

n Which of the following statements correctly defines intermolecular forces?

Intermolecular forces are the weak forces of attraction found between the individual molecules of a molecular covalent substance.

Which position will a lone pair preferentially occupy in a trigonal bipyramidal geometry and why?

The equatorial position because it affords more separation from other domains for the greater repulsion of a lone pair.

Why is BeF2 a nonpolar molecule?

BeF2 is linear and therefore the individual bond dipoles cancel to give no net dipole.

Which statement correctly describes the basic principle of VSEPR theory?

Each group of valence electrons around a central atom is located as far from the others as possible.

Match each description of molecular shape to the correct implication for polarity.

Individual bond dipoles will cancelfor a species that has identical bonds and a symmetrical geometry. Individual bond dipoles will not cancelfor a species with an unsymmetrical geometry. A species will be nonpolar overallif individual bond dipoles cancel. A species will be polar overallif individual bond dipoles do not cancel.

Select all the statements that correctly explain why bond angles in molecules containing lone pairs or multiple bonds may be different than the VSEPR ideal.

Multiple bonds contain higher electron densities that repel more than single bonds. Multiple bonds repel more strongly than single bonds that results in compression in adjacent bond angles. Lone pairs exert greater repulsion that causes compression in adjacent bond angles.

Draw the Lewis structures for NH2-, NH3, and NH4+. How would you expect the H-N-H bond angle in each species to compare?

NH2- < NH3 < NH4+

What approximate value will be observed for the bond angle marked in the structure shown? (Note that Lewis structures commonly do not reflect the actual shape of the species.)

Nitrogen will have a trigonal pyramidal molecular geometry. Carbon will have a trigonal planar molecular geometry.

Because lone pairs exert greater repulsions than bonded pairs, lone-pair domains always occupy the _____ positions in a trigonal bipyramid.

equatorial

Which of the following statements correctly describe how to determine whether a given molecule is polar or nonpolar? Select all that apply.

- for a molecule that has polar bonds, the geometry must be known in order to predict the overall polarity .- if a molecule contains no dipole moments across any bonds it will be non polar. - if the individual bond dipoles do not cancel, the molecule is polar.

In general, a lone pair repels bonding electron pairs _____ than bonding pairs repel each other. A lone pair will therefore _____ the bond angle between bonding pairs. A double bond has a similar effect.
