VSEPR Theory: Predicting Molecular Shapes with Ease

The video tutorial explains how to predict molecular geometry using VSEPR theory. It outlines the steps involved, starting with drawing the Lewis structure, counting electron pairs, and determining the geometry based on electron pair arrangement. The tutorial uses water as an example, showing that while electron pairs are arranged tetrahedrally, the molecular geometry is bent due to the position of hydrogen atoms.
