VSEPR Theory: The 3-dimensional arrangement of atoms around any central atom is determined
primarily by the repulsions between electrons in the valence shell of the atom.

The concept of valence-shell electron-pair repulsion
(VSEPR) is presented in introductory organic chemistry
as a way to predict molecular geometries. The idea be-
hind VSEPR is that areas of electron density repel each
other so that the geometry of bonds and/or lone pairs
of electrons around any one atom places these areas as
far apart as possible. For four areas of electron density,
a tetrahedral geometry is predicted. For three areas of
electron density, a trigonal planar geometry is predicted.
Two areas of electron density lead to a linear geometry.
VSEPR is simply a predictive tool, but in some
cases, it gives an incorrect prediction. In these
instances, additional insights into bonding are
necessary, such as resonance. Interestingly, several
important situations are critical to biochemistry where
VSEPR breaks down. Two examples are shown here.

While there are only a few basic VSEPR shapes based on electron geometry, many different VSEPR shapes can arise from different combinations of peripheral atoms and lone pairs. One such shape is the see-saw, which happens when you have a molecule of the general form AXE (where A is the central atom, X is a peripheral atom, and E is a lone pair of electrons). Draw a molecule that would have a see-saw shape (it's not important whether the molecule technically exists, but that it could exist based on the valence electrons of its atoms).arrow_forward
