Chapter 1   VSEPR: bonds are overlap of atomic orbitals       Predicts shapes of molecules       Areas of electrons repel each other. Tetrahedral         Areas of electron        Example                   Bond angle       Tetrahedral              CH 4                      109.5       Trigonal                 BF 3                      120       Trigonal pyramid         NH 3                      107.3        Bent                     H 2                       104.5       Linear                   CO 2                      180       VSEPR predicts shape but does not explain why electron are located        where they are. It’s a model NOT a theory   Molecular Bonding theory:        bonds are the constructive interaction  between waves of like
