Chapter 8, Problem 8.33CP

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

From the given molecular models, identify the model which is odd one.

Concept introduction:

Shape of molecule depends upon the number of atom attached the central atom and lone pair around it. Lone pair changes the shape of molecule from usual.

If central atom is associated with four charge clouds, their shape is either tetrahedral or square planar molecule. But one lone pair changes the shape of molecule.

To determine:
