b)

polar covalent;NK

c)

Nonpolar covalent; NP4

10.

According to the VSEPR theory, why do molecules have different shapes?

a)

The repulsion between electrons that adjust the shapes so they are as far away as possible.

b)

The attraction between electrons that adjust the shapes so they are as close away as possible.

11.

Why does water have a bent shape and carbon dioxide have linear shapes even though both have three atoms?

a)

water is bent because oxygen has two unshared pairs of electrons whereas carbon dioxide has no unshared pairs so it's linear.

b)

carbon dioxide is bent because carbon has two unshared pairs of electrons whereas water has no unshared pairs so it's linear.

12.

What is the difference between shared and unshared(lone)pairs of electrons?

a)

shared pairs of electrons are between 2 atoms; unshared or lone are not shared and not involved in bonding

b)

shared pairs of electrons are between 2 atoms; unshared or lone are not shared

c)

unshared or lone of electrons are between 2 atoms; shared pairs are not shared and not involved in bonding
