FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is molecular geometry?

Back

Molecular geometry refers to the three-dimensional arrangement of atoms within a molecule, which affects its physical and chemical properties.

2.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

Define polarity in molecules.

Back

Polarity in molecules refers to the distribution of electrical charge over the atoms in a molecule, leading to regions of partial positive and negative charge.

3.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a polar molecule?

Back

A polar molecule is one that has a net dipole moment due to the presence of polar bonds and an asymmetric shape.

4.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is a non-polar molecule?

Back

A non-polar molecule is one that does not have a net dipole moment, often due to symmetrical arrangement of bonds.

5.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the VSEPR theory?

Back

The Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) theory predicts the geometry of molecules based on the repulsion between electron pairs around a central atom.

6.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the shape of a molecule with four bonding pairs and no lone pairs?

Back

Tetrahedral.

7.

FLASHCARD QUESTION

Front

What is the shape of a molecule with three bonding pairs and one lone pair?

Back

Trigonal pyramidal.
