Compounds form their shapes due to the size of the atoms and the repelling of bonding pairs of electrons. The electron pairs repel the the furthest parts of the atom that they can(It's easier if you imagine the atom's outer shell as a sphere, where the electron pairs are as far apart as possible)

What determines whether a particular chemical is organic?
In general, carbon compounds.
What is the answer of C6 H12 O6?
There are many compounds that conform to this ratio of carbon, hydrogen and oxygen atoms, but the most common one is sucrose - common table sugar.
What test is used to assess a mineral based on its reaction with a substance that may or may not produce carbon dioxide bubbles?
Carbon dioxide and water are produced when acids react with carbonate compounds. Therefore, if an acid reacts with a particular mineral and produces carbon dioxide, that mineral contains carbonate compounds.
What Discribes organic compounds?
Organic compounds are compounds that contain carbon.
What are these compounds known as?
Chemical compounds.
Which word feature is used to distort or modify text to conform to a variety of shapes?
WordArt
What are the principal geometric shapes of inorganic complex compounds?
There are four different principal geometric shapes which are formed by inorganic complex compounds. Namely, they are;Octahedral - These compounds make six mono-donate bondsTetrahedral - These compounds make four mono-donate bondsSquare planer - These compounds make four mono-donate bondsLinear - These compounds make two mono-donate bondsThe bond of these configurations are six, four, four and two respectively.From these configurations, tetrahedral and octahedral compounds can be commonly found. The configuration for a particular compound is determined by the hybridization of the central atom. After hybridization, they form bonds with ligands with the empty orbitals it have and it is a special feature of d-block elements. This has a big difference of behavior in comparison to a usual covalent bond.
What are common geometry or shapes of molecules?
Some typical shapes include tetrahedral, linear (or straight), bent, trigonal planar, trigonal bipyramid, and ring compounds.
What are the safety precautions of compounds?
Safety precautions for use with chemical compounds depend entirely on what particular compounds are being used, and how they are being stored and handled.
What often shapes the way people in a particular culture see themselves?
No
What is the means to close all churches in a particular area which was used by popes to make kings conform their will?
It is called interdict.
Is it easier to conform or not to conform?
not to conform
Why would two shapes have equal areas and perimeters?
There is no particular reason. In fact, in general, two shapes will have different areas or perimeters or both.
How did you conform that a particular type of reproduction is sexual reproduction?
When both male and female are engaged and they copulate then it is said to be sexual reproduction.
Do plants have particular shapes and sizes?
No, all plants grow very differantly.
