I have a list of elements I need the electron domain and molecular geometries of. I got most of them, but there are a few I am stumped on.
H3O+
XeF4
SF6
SnCl3-

The exact directions areGive the electron domain and molecular geometry for the following molecules and ions from the list given.

The list is: Bent, Linear, Octahedral, Seesaw, square planar, square pyramidal, tetrahedral, trigonal planar, trigonal pyramidal, and trigonal bipyramidal.

Thanks!

H3O+
electron domain = sp3 (tetrahedral)
molecular geometry = trigonal pyramid
http://www.elmhurst.edu/~chm/vchembook/205trigpyramid.html
----------

XeF4
electron domain = sp3 d2 (octahedral)
molecular geometry = square planar
http://www.3dchem.com/inorganicmolecule.asp?id=1256
------------

SF6
electron domain = sp3 d2 (octahedral)
molecular geometry = octahedral
http://www.3dchem.com/inorganicmolecule.asp?id=653
--------------

SnCl3-
electron domain = sp3 (tetraahedral)
molecular geometry = tigonal pyramid

Its linear because for the geometry you do not take Metals into acount so Na+ is out you are left with C and N and they are linear. But i gotta tell you that in two years of HS chem and two semesters of advanced chem in college i have never heard of electon domain geometry... good luck

I have not heard of "electron domain" in many years as a chemist. I don't think many people have, because I see no one has had a go at answering. I would like to know what the expression means, and then I could probably help you.
