Question
Chapter 5, Problem 5.41SP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Why cyclohexane has six-membered ring of carbon atoms with no-planar shape but not flat has to be explained and the
Concept introduction:
Bond angle: An angle which is formed between three atoms across at least two bonds is said to be bond angle.
Bond angle of a molecule can be determined by using the following way.
- First draw Lewis structure for the given molecule.
- Find the steric number by using VSEPR theory with the help of electron domain geometry of the given molecule.
- Finally use the VSEPR shape to get the bond angles between the electrons domains present in the given molecule.
