What is the difference between Electron Geometry and Molecular Geometry and explain the circumstances under which they will not be the same?
Electron geometry describes the arrangement of electron pairs around a central atom in a molecule, based on the total number of electron pairs (bonding and nonbonding). Molecular geometry, on the other hand, describes the arrangement of atoms, taking into account only the positions of the atoms. They will not be the same when there are lone pairs of electrons on the central atom. In such cases, the electron geometry is determined by all electron pairs, whereas the molecular geometry considers only the positions of the atoms, leading to a difference.
What The three-dimensional arrangement of electron groups around the central atom is called what?
three dimensional arrangement of atoms electron-group geometry
What is the electron geometry if you have 4 electron groups in center of atom?
The electron geometry is tetrahedral when there are 4 electron groups around the central atom. This means the electron groups are arranged in a 3D shape resembling a pyramid with a triangular base.
What is the electron domain geometry of bro3 1-?
tetrahedral
What is the electron geometry and molecular geometry of NCl3?
The electron geometry of NCl3 is trigonal pyramidal (four electron groups around the central nitrogen atom). The molecular geometry of NCl3 is also trigonal pyramidal, as the three chlorine atoms and lone pair of electrons repel each other to form this shape.
What is the electron geometry for OF2?
molecular geometry is bent, electron geometry is tetrahedral
How many electron pairs are in CF2Cl2?
This is a chemical element. You can find the how many electron in a single atom by using a periodic table.
What is the electron geometry of pf5?
The electron geometry (and also, the molecular geometry) of PF5 is Trigonal Bipyramidal.
What is the name of CF2CL2?
The name of CF2Cl2 is dichlorodifluoromethane.
What is the electron pair geometry for CS2?
The electron pair geometry for CS2 is Linear.
What is the electron-domain geometry of PF6?
The electron-domain geometry of PF6 is Octahedral, since the central atom Phosphorus has an electron pair geometry which is octahedral
What is the electron pair geometry of NClO2?
I'm unsure what the electron pair geometry is but the molecular geometry is Trigonal Planar.
What it the electron geometry for PF3?
The electron geometry ("Electronic Domain Geometry") for PF3 is tetrahedral. The molecular geometry, on the other hand, is Trigonal Pyramidal.
What is the electron pair geometry around the central atom of SeF6?
electron pair geometry: octahedral molecular geometry: octahedral
The electron geometry of a water molecule is even though the molecular geometry is bent?
