An explanation of the molecular
An explanation of the molecular geometry for SeF4 (Selenium Tetrafluoride) including a description of the SeF4 bond angles. The electron geometry for the Selenium Tetrafluoride is also provided.
To determine the molecular geometry, or shape for a compound like SeF4, 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 SeF4 we would expect it to be Trigonal bipryamidal.
