Chapter 3, Problem 3.46P
(a)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: Whether the trend of bond angle in
Concept Introduction:
Lewis dot structure is also known as Lewis dot formula or electron dot structure. VSEPR theory stands as Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory. It helps to predict the molecular shape or geometry of the molecule with the help of the number of bond pair or lone pair present in it. According to VSEPR theory, the presence of lone pair on the central atom of molecule causes deviation from standard molecular geometry.
(b)
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: The other two C-E-C angles that suspects more and should be reinvestigated as of As(CF3)3 should be explained.
