The ammonia molecule has a trigonal pyramidal shape with a bond angle of 107.8°, as predicted by the valence shell electron pair repulsion theory (VSEPR theory). The central nitrogen atom has five outer electrons with an additional electron from each hydrogen atom. This gives a total of eight electrons, or four electron pairs that are arranged tetrahedrally. Three of these electron pairs are used as bond pairs, which leaves one lone pair of electrons. The lone pair of electrons repel more strongly than bond pairs, therefore the bond angle is not 109.5°, as expected for a regular tetrahedral arrangement, but is measured at 107.8°.

Bonds in which electrons are equally shared?
A bond in which electrons are equally shared is a non-polar covalent bond.
Are electrons shared equally in CH4?
no way
What is called when electrons are not shared equally in a molecule?
polar
What molecule is created when electrons are not shared equally?
prion
Are non polar covalents created when the shared electrons between atoms are not equally shared?

What is the name for when electrons are shared equally?
Covalent
Are electrons shared equally in CH4?

What is called when electrons are not shared equally in a molecule?
polar
What molecule is created when electrons are not shared equally?
prion
A bond in which electrons are shared equally?
A covalent bond
Which describes bonding electrons in a polar covalent bond?
Electrons that are NOT shared equally.
Is a covalent bond considered polar if the two atoms share the electrons equally?
no. A polar bond is a covalent bond in which electrons are shared unequally. A nonpolar bond is a covalent bond in which electrons are shared equally.
What are three types of polar molecules?
Water-H2O Ammonia-NH3 Sulfur Dioxide-SO2
