Trinitrotoluene TNT is an aromatic compound. Four groups are attached to the central benzene ring, one -CH3, and three -NO2 along with two hydrogen atoms. Each is attached to an sp2 hybridised carbon so the molecular geometry of each carbon atom is trigonal planar with a bon angle of 120 0

What is molecular geometry of CSe2?

The molecular geometry of CSe2 is linear. This is because carbon diselenide (CSe2) has a linear molecular shape due to the arrangement of two selenium atoms around the central carbon atom.


What circumstances is the molecular geometry around a central atom the same as the electron group geometry around the central atom?

The molecular geometry around a central atom is the same as the electron group geometry when there are no lone pairs of electrons on the central atom. In such cases, all electron groups (bonding pairs) are arranged symmetrically around the atom, leading to identical geometries. This typically occurs in molecules with linear, trigonal planar, or tetrahedral arrangements, depending on the number of bonding pairs.

If a central atom has sp3d2 bond hybridization which molecular geometry is represented?

If a central atom has sp³d² hybridization, it typically exhibits an octahedral molecular geometry. This geometry arises from the arrangement of six electron pairs around the central atom, resulting in bond angles of 90 degrees between the bonds. In some cases, if there are lone pairs present, the geometry may be altered to a square pyramidal or square planar shape.
