Name__________________________________Period_______Date_________ Molecular Geometry and VSEPR Theory Directions: Read section 6.5 in your textbook, and then answer the following questions: 1. What is the major assumption of the VSEPR theory, which is used to predict the shape of atoms? 2. In water, two hydrogen atoms are bonded to one oxygen atom. Why isn’t water a linear molecule? 3. What two factors determine whether or not a molecule is polar? 4. Fill in the table below. Formula Lewis Structure Shape (Geometry) Bond Angles CO2 I2 CF4 NH3 H2O ONCl 5. Which molecules listed in the table above would you expect to be polar?
