A quick explanation of the
A quick explanation of the molecular geometry of SCN- including a description of the SCN- bond angles.
Looking at the SCN- Lewis structure we can see that there are two atoms attached to the central Carbon (C) and that there are no lone pair electrons (on the central Carbon). Based on VSEPR Theory (Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory) the electron clouds around these atoms will repel each other. As a result they will be pushed down giving the SCN- molecule a linear molecular geometry or shape.
The SCN- bond angle will be about 180 degrees since it has a Linear molecular geometry.
