  1. Chapter 6 Section 3

  2. Vsepr theory • The Valence shell electron pair repulsion theory states that electron pairs in the valence shell stay as far apart as possible. • The VSEPR theory can be used to predict the shape of a molecule. • The different shapes are linear, bent, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, and trigonal pyramidal. • The shapes of a molecule also affect the molecule’s physical and chemical properties.

  3. Different molecular shapes • Linea shape- • Bent shape- • Tetrahedral shape-

  4. Different molecular shapes • Trigonal planar- • Trigonal pyramidal-
