Concept Introduction:
According to VSEPR (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion) theory, each molecule gets a unique structure. That structure is explained by considering steric number of that molecule.
Non-bonding electrons are not involved in the bond formation. They are called lone pairs.
The geometry of the central atom will be determined by counting the steric number followed by the hybridization state of that central atom and finally electronic arrangement of atoms in space.
The steric number is the combination of both number of
Steric number is calculated by using following formula,
If the steric number is 4, the central atom has sp3 hybridized and the electronic arrangement of atoms in space (i.e. geometry) will be tetrahedral.
If the steric number is 3, the central atom has sp2 hybridized and the electronic arrangement of atoms in space (i.e. geometry) will be trigonal planar.
If the steric number is 2, the central atom has sp hybridized and the electronic arrangement of atoms in space (i.e. geometry) will be linear.
