VSEPR Theory and Molecular Geometry

The video explains molecular geometry using the VSEPR model, which predicts molecular shapes based on electron domain repulsion. It covers hybridization types like sp, sp2, and sp3, and their corresponding geometries such as linear, trigonal planar, and tetrahedral. The impact of lone pairs on molecular geometry is also discussed, using examples like ammonia and water. The video emphasizes the importance of understanding molecular shapes for chemistry.
