linear
What is the molecular shape of OCL2?
angular
What is the molecular shape for SiOH2?
It is tetrahedral.
How do you use shapes to predict molecular polarity?
if molecular shape is symmatrical then its non-polar but if it is non symmatrical then its polar.
What is the effect of molecular polarity on behavior?
Explain the effect of molecular polarity on behaviour.
How do you know if a molecular compound has a dipole-dipole attraction?
A dipole moment is defined as a measure of the molecular polarity of a compound; the magnitude of the partial charges on the ends of a molecule times the distance between them (in meters). In order for there to be a dipole moment the element must must have molecular polarity which results from molecules with a net imbalance of charge (often a result of differences in electronegativity). If the molecule has more than two atoms, both shape and bond polarity determines the molecular polarity. In general look for a difference in electronegativity of the elements of a molecule which results in polarity and thus a possible dipole moment. Note that molecular shape influence polarity so molecules with the same elements but a different shape (and vice versa) won't have the same dipole moment.
What is the polarity and molecular shape of O2?
This molecule, like all other diatomic gas elements, is non-polar and has a rod-like shape.
What is the molecule geometry for HF?
since it has a total of two atoms , its molecular shape is linear with bond angles of 180 degree.
How does molecular shape effect polarity?
The molecular geometry of a compound helps to determine polarity because, it indicates the number of lone pairs on a central atom thus giving it specified angles and polarity (only if there are lone pairs because if there are no lone pairs on the central atom, them it is non-polar).
