2. Use the following letters corresponding to the molecular geometries to answer parts A. and B.

a) triangular planar b) tetrahedral

c) trigangular pyramidal d) octahedral

e) trigonal bipyramidal f) linear g) angular

A. What is the molecular geometry of a SiCl4 molecule ?
B. Predict the molecular geometry of ClO3-

3. What is the electron-pair geometry of ClF5

You must type the name in, e.g. triangular planar
note that the computer is case insensitive, you can use either upper or lower case letters in the answer you enter.

NOTE: If you need to enter T-shaped enter it with a hyphen, just like it appears here.

Answer 1

1. C
2A: b
2B: c
3. pyramidal
