QUESTION:

If all of the electron groups around a central atom are bonding groups (that is, there are no lone pairs), what is the molecular geometry for:

(a) two electron groups

(b) three electron groups

(c) four electron groups

ANSWER:

Solution 14Q

The molecular geometry of a molecule depends on (i)  number of electron group around the central atom (ii) Number of bonding groups and lone pairs.

(a) two electron groups

Both the electron group is bonding pair electron.

The geometry of the molecule having two electron groups is Linear.

For example: BeH2, HCN and CO2
