Limitations of VSEPR Theory

The video revisits VSEPR theory, explaining its application in predicting molecular geometries. It highlights the theory's limitations, especially with larger central atoms like sulfur and tellurium, where hybridization is minimal or absent. The video uses water, hydrogen sulfide, and hydrogen telluride as examples to illustrate these concepts, emphasizing that VSEPR is more applicable to smaller atoms like carbon, nitrogen, and oxygen.
