Introduction for Module 14 – Molecular Geometry
Textbook: Open Stax Chemistry 2e
Suggested Reading: Chapter 7.6
Learning Objectives:
- Determine the geometry for molecules with up to 4 domains
- Recognize the role of lone pairs vs. bonded pairs for determining geometry
- Demonstrate how different electronegativities between atoms results in bond dipoles
- Determine whether a molecule is polar vs. non-polar based on geometry and existence of bond dipoles
