Yes, selenium dioxide (SeO2) has a bent molecular geometry. This is due to the presence of a lone pair of electrons on the selenium atom, which repels the bonding pairs of electrons and creates a bent shape. The bond angle in SeO2 is approximately 120 degrees, characteristic of a trigonal planar arrangement influenced by the lone pair.

The molecule geometry of SeO2 is bent (angular) with a bond angle of around 119 degrees. This is due to the lone pairs of electrons on selenium causing repulsion and pushing the bonded oxygen atoms closer together.
The bond angle between the oxygens in SeO2 is approximately 120 degrees.
SeO2 is polar. This is because the molecule has a bent shape with unequal sharing of electrons between the sulfur and oxygen atoms, leading to a separation of charges and creating a net dipole moment.
The name of the covalent compound SeO2 is selenium dioxide.
Yes, SeO2 has covalent bonds. Selenium dioxide (SeO2) is a chemical compound composed of selenium and oxygen atoms that share electrons in covalent bonds to form a stable molecule.
All molecules have dispersion forces. SeO2, however, is polar, with a 120-degree O-Se-O bond angle (you need only apply VSEPR). So there are dipole-dipole interactions, which are far more powerful than dispersion forces. If ions are present, ion-dipole interactions can occur as well.
No, selenium dioxide (SeO2) has a bent or V-shaped molecular geometry due to its lone pairs on the selenium atom. It is best described as having a bent molecular shape rather than a trigonal planar geometry.
No, SeO2 does not involve an ionic bond. It is a covalent compound composed of selenium (Se) and oxygen (O) where atoms are sharing electrons to form bonds.
Well, SeO2 is a bent molecule. It has 2 lone pairs on the Se central atom, giving it bond angles of 109.5 degrees. Because it's bent, it is polar. We also know (hopefully) that all polar molecules exhibit Dipole-Dipole IMFs. And all molecules exhibit London Dispersion Forces (LDFs). Because it doesn't have any Hydrogen atoms, we can rule out Hydrogen Bonding. So it's just Dipole-dipole and LDFs.
