Learning Objectives
TLW predict molecular structure for molecules using Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) Theory (TEKS 7.E)

A. VSEPR Theory
1. Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory gives us a three-dimensional picture of atomic bonding that the Electron Dot Structure does not.
2. Electron pairs orient themselves in order to minimize repulsive forces.

VSEPR:
3. Predicts three dimensional geometry of molecules.
4. The name tells you the theory:
5. Valence shell - outside electrons.
6. Electron Pair repulsion - electron pairs try to get as far away as possible.
7. Can determine the angles of bonds.

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

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

1. Draw the Lewis Diagram.
2. Tally up e- pairs on central atom.a. double/triple bonds = ONE pair
3. Shape is determined by the # of bonding pairs and lone pairs.
Know the 3 most common shapes & their bond angles!

D. Orbital Hybridization
VSEPR Theory works well when accounting for molecular shapes, but doesn’t help describing the types of bonds formed.
In hybridization, several atomic orbitals mix to form the same total number of equivalent hybrid orbitals

D. Orbital Hybridization
For Example ~ Methane (CH4)
C = 1s22s22p2
H = 1s1 (and there are four H atoms)
C re-configures its one 2s and three 2p orbitals into four sp3 orbitals, which overlap the 1s orbitals of the 4 hydrogen atoms

E. One Other Note on Bonding Electronegativity determines bonding
which contributes to the bond angle Greater than 1.7 ionic bonds 0.3 – 1.7 polar covalent bonds 0 – 0.3 covalent
