Molecular geometry

Molecular geometry

Molecular geometry is the three-dimensional arrangement of the atoms that constitute a molecule. It includes the general shape of the molecule as well as bond lengths, bond angles, torsional angles and any other geometrical parameters that determine the position of each atom. Molecular geometry influences several properties of a substance including its reactivity, polarity, phase of matter, color, magnetism and biological activity. The angles between bonds that an atom forms depend only weakly on the rest of molecule, i.e. they can be understood as approximately local and hence transferable properties. (Wikipedia).

Calculating the Area of Shapes

We know about all kinds of one-dimensional parameters, like side lengths and what not, but now we want to talk about the two-dimensional area that a shape will occupy. This can be thought of as the amount of surface that a shape covers. In this clip, we go over some of the formulas we can

Visualizing Molecular Geometry With 3D Software

We've already learned about VSEPR theory, and how to use it to predict the shapes of various molecules. But we didn't cover all of the molecular geometries for certain hybridizations, and we didn't talk about bond angles, so let's do both of those things now, using some neat 3D software!

VSEPR Theory and Molecular Geometry

Did you know that geometry was invented by molecules? It's true! Until the first stars went supernova and littered all the elements across the cosmos, everything was simply spheres, from protons to stars. But then, under cooler planetary conditions, atoms came together to form molecules, a

Steric number | AP Chemistry | Khan Academy

One way to determine the hybridization of an atom is to calculate its steric number, which is equal to the number of sigma bonds surrounding the atom plus the number of lone pairs on the atoms. In this video, we focus on atoms with a steric number of 4, which corresponds to sp³ hybridizati
