In the following ions the first atom listed is the center atom to the rest of the atoms. Which of the following ions would have a tetrahedral shape?

An ion with a tetrahedral shape has four atoms surrounding the central atom. The ions that could have a tetrahedral shape include CH4 (methane), NH4+ (ammonium), and CF4 (carbon tetrafluoride).

There are no tetrahedral crystals.


What VSEPR shape does SiCl4 have?

SiCl4 has a tetrahedral shape according to the VSEPR theory. Each Cl atom is located at the corner of the tetrahedron, with the silicon atom at the center.


Which interstial site is larger octahedral or tetrahedral?

Octahedral sites are larger than tetrahedral sites because octahedral sites have more space available for an atom or ion to occupy. This is because octahedral sites are formed by six atoms or ions arranged in an octahedral shape, while tetrahedral sites are formed by four atoms or ions arranged in a tetrahedral shape.


In the following ions the first atom listed is the center atom to the rest of the atoms. Which of the following ions would have a tetrahedral shape apex?

An ion with a tetrahedral shape apex would have a central atom bonded to four surrounding atoms. Examples include methane (CH₄), with carbon as the central atom, and ammonia (NH₃), with nitrogen as the central atom.


What VSEPR shape would CH3Cl have?

The shape of chloromethane is tetrahedral.


Is HCI tetrahedral?

No, HCI is not tetrahedral. The molecular shape of hydrogen chloride (HCl) is linear due to the two atoms in the molecule. A tetrahedral shape would have four atoms bonded to a central atom.


What is the molecular shape of CF2Cl2?

The molecular shape of CF2Cl2 is tetrahedral. The carbon atom is at the center, with two fluorine atoms and two chlorine atoms attached, resulting in a symmetrical tetrahedral shape.


What shape should CH4 and SnCl4 have?

CH4 should have a tetrahedral shape while SnCl4 should have a trigonal bipyramidal shape.


What molecules or ions has a bent shapepcl5 ph3 of2 clo4?

PCL5: Trigonal bipyramidal shape PH3: Trigonal pyramidal shape OF2: Bent shape ClO4-: Tetrahedral shape


What is the Molecule shape of CH4?

The molecule shape of CH4 (methane) is tetrahedral, with the carbon atom at the center and the four hydrogen atoms at the vertices. This shape maximizes the distance between the hydrogen atoms, minimizing repulsion and leading to a stable molecule.
