The SCN molecule has a linear molecular shape due to the presence of a triple bond between the sulfur and carbon atom, with the nitrogen atom attached at one end. This arrangement results in a linear geometry for the molecule.
Ba(SCN)2 is an ionic compound due to the presence of the barium cation (Ba^2+) and thiocyanate anion (SCN^-).
The molecular structure of SCN- in terms of its Lewis structure consists of a central sulfur atom bonded to a nitrogen atom and a carbon atom. The sulfur atom has a lone pair of electrons, and there is a triple bond between the sulfur and nitrogen atoms.
The molecular shape name for C3H8 is a tetrahedron.
Parent Shape: Trigonal bipyrimidal Actual shape: Trigonal Planar
The molecular shape of a magnesium hydride molecule is linear. Magnesium has a +2 charge, while hydride has a -1 charge, resulting in a linear molecular shape.
