All molecules that only contain two atoms are necessarily linear (a single strait line will always connect two points). H2, O2, N2, CO Carbon dioxide is also a classic example of a linear molecule. Although in this case the linearity is due to the two double bonds. O=C=C

What shape is the molecule I3?
linear
What is the molecular geometry shape of CO?
This is a linear molecule.
What is the shape of molecule cs2?
The shape of CS2 is considered linear. This is because both sulfur molecules are attached to the one carbon molecule using double bonds in a straight line.
What molecule or ion has a linear shape?
PH3 forms a trigonal pyramid ClO4- forms a perfectly regular trigonal pyramid, known as a tetrahedron BeCl2 ~APEX
The shape of the carbon dioxide molecule is called?
linear
What molecule or ion have a linear shape?
For example nitric oxide (NO) and beryllium hydride (BeH2) have linear molecules.
Which molecule or ion has a linear shape?
BeCl2
What shape does the molecule ClF2 plus have?
The ClF2+ ion is bent. (The VSEPR AXE notation is AX2E2 ). The ClF2- ion (AX2E3) is linear.
What is the shape of the molecule HCN?
Hydrogen cyanide is a hydrogen bonded to a complex ion, cyanide (CN-). The hydrogen is single bonded to the cyanide ion, which is a carbon triple bonded to a nitrogen atom. See the link below for a good representation of this molecule.
