In this video we’ll look
In this video we’ll look at the Tetrahedral Molecular Geometry and Bond Angles. We'll use VSEPR Theory and the Lewis Structure for CH4 and then use interactive models and visualization to visualize the tetrahedral geometry.
The Tetrahedral molecular shape occurs when there are four atoms attached to the central atom and no lone pairs (unbonded pairs) of electrons on the central atom. CH4 is a good example of a tetrahedral molecular geometry.
It is useful to understand the generic molecular geometry and then apply it to specific molecules using either the steric number and number of lone pairs of electrons or the AXE notation.
For the more on the molecular geometries below see my video at:
Molecular Geometry: Rules, Examples, ...
- Linear
- Bent (90 and 120-degree bond angles)
- Trigonal Planer
- Trigonal Pyramidal
- Tetrahedral
- Trigonal Bipyramidal
- Octahedral
The role of lone pairs (unbonded electron pairs) and their VSEPR influence on molecule shape will also be addressed in the video.
