5. 6/20/2015 VSEPR Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion  Allows the prediction of molecular geometry An extension of the “groups of electrons” (effective electron pair) concept Involves sp and dsp types of hybridizations The central atom may or may not obey the octet rule.

6. 6/20/2015 To Determine Molecular Geometry  Count the number of valence electrons.  Place a pair of electrons between the atoms bound together.  Each non-central (terminal) atom is given electrons to fulfill its inert gas configuration.  Any additional electron pairs become lone (unshared) electrons pairs on the central atom.  The geometry is determined by the number of bonding and unshared pairs of electrons on the central atom.
