How To Predict Shape/Molecular Geometry Of A Molecule

We will use the chart below to predict the correct shape of a molecule. First we must start with a correct Lewis dot structure of the molecule. This is of outmost importance. If the Lewis dot structure is incorrect, you will not be able to predict the shape correctly. Next, we must identify the central atom and ask how many other atoms it is connected to and how many lone pairs of electrons (two dots) are on it. Then we have to look at the chart to identify the correct shape. The purple dot...
