Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.9QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
In terms of
Concept Introduction:
Valence bond theory:
VSEPR theory tells about the shapes of molecules and ions by taking the consideration that the outermost electron pairs are arranged about each atom so that the pairs of electrons are kept at a distance from one molecule to other, thereby minimizing the repulsion of electron-pair.
