Question

For each molecule shown here, indicate the hybridization of the central atom. A Lewis structure is a two-dimensional representation of a molecule that does not necessarily show what shape that molecule would take in three dimensions. From the following Lewis structure and what you know about VSEPR theory, approximate the smallest bond angle in this molecule. Below is a 3D representation of a cyclohexane (C6H12) molecule, a cyclic compound used in the manufacture of nylon and found in the distillation of petroleum. Name the geometry around each carbon atom. Be sure to rotate the molecule to see all atoms. What Is the hybridization of each carbon atom? sp sp2 sp3 sp3d d2 Click on the box below to activate the module. Then use the toolbar buttons to to rotate the molecule.
