An explanation of the molecular geometry for the ICl4- ion including a description of the ICl4- bond angles. The electron geometry for the is also provided.

The ideal bond angle for the is 90, 180° since it has a Square planar molecular geometry. Experimentally we would expect the bond angle to be approximately Approx. 90, 180°.

How to Draw the Lewis Structure for ICl4 -  (ICl4- Lewis Structure - How to Draw t...)

To determine the molecular geometry, or shape for a compound like ICl4-, we complete the following steps:

1) Draw the Lewis Structure for the compound.
2) Predict how the atoms and lone pairs will spread out when the repel each other.
3) Use a chart based on steric number (like the one in the video) or use the AXN notation to find the molecular shape. This will be determined by the number of atoms and lone pairs attached to the central atom.

If you are trying to find the electron geometry for ICl4- we would expect it to be Octahedral.
