What is the molecular shape of a molecular that has two electron pairs in which both pairs are shared?
linear
In the Lewis structure for a molecule of methyl chloride (CH3Cl) how many lone pairs of electrons does chlorine have when it is bonded to carbon?
Two lone pair on the central selenium and three lone pairs on each chlorine. So total of eight lone pairs.
How many lone pairs does So4 have?
The short answer to your question is eight. Here is the long answer: SO3 has a total of 24 valence electrons. The central S is bonded to each of the O atoms. In the dot structure, one of the O atoms is double bonded to the S while the others have a single bond. This gives S its octet, using 8 of the valence electrons. The remaining 16 electrons exist as lone pairs. The two single bonded oxygens each have three lone pairs of electrons to obtain their octet. The double bonded oxygen has two lone pairs to obtain its octet. Since the double bond oxygen could be any of the three oxygens, the molecule is actually a combination of all three structures (the resonance structure).
Bond angle of NH3?
107.5 approximately, as the molecule is based on a tetrahedral shape, which should have 109.5 degree bonds, but the lone pair on the N causes the bond angles to be slightly decreased, by about 2 degrees
Does SeO2 have any bonds?
yes it has bond an 2 lone pair
What is the molecular shape of I3?
If you're referring to I3- The shape is Linear. The central I has 3 lone pair arounds it, with 2 bonded atoms.
Whuch of the following are classified as an electron group?
Lone-pair electrons, Bonded pairs of electrons
How do non-bonded electron pairs help determine the shape of molecules?
Non bonded pairs have a higher force of repulsion than bonded pairs, as the bonded pairs also feel the pull of another positive nucleus. The shape of a molecule is distorted. 2 example - NH3 (one lone pair) & H2O (2 lone pairs). NH3 is trigonal pyramidal while H2O is bent.
How many lone pair electrons are in Acetone?
None. The central atom in methanoic acid (HCOOH) is carbon, which has four electrons. One of the electrons is bonded to the lone hydrogen, another electron is bonded to the hydroxide (OH), and the last two are double bonded to the lone oxygen.
What is the dot diagram for Tin4 Oxide?
Can't make the dots, but each line is one pair of dots (electrons that is).Covalent => between atoms ( ' = ', 2 pair, double bonded)Lone pairs => before or after an 'outer' atom ( '', 2 lone pair).O=Ti=O

What is the molecular geometry of NH2-?
NH2- is sp3 hybridized and there is 2 bonding and 2 lone pair of electron,that's why shape of NH2 is angular.

How many lone pair does oxygen have?
2
How many lone pair electrons are in CO2?
There are 2 lone pairs in each Oxygen atom. So there are 4 lone pairs in total, which means 8 lone pair electrons.
