Question

for each molecular shape, identify the number of bonds around the central atom and the number of lone pairs around the central atom. number of bonds around the central atom number of lone pairs around the central atom molecular geometries 2 0 linear 3 0 trigonal planar 4 0 tetrahedral 3 1 trigonal pyramidal 2 2 bent 5 0 trigonal bipyramidal 6 0 octahedral 5 1 square nvramidal

Explanation:

Step1: Identify from the table

The table provides the relationship between the number of bonds around the central atom, the number of lone - pairs around the central atom, and the molecular geometry. For example, for a linear molecular geometry, there are 2 bonds and 0 lone - pairs around the central atom.

Answer:

Molecular Geometry	Number of Bonds Around the Central Atom	Number of Lone Pairs Around the Central Atom
Trigonal planar	3	0
Tetrahedral	4	0
Trigonal pyramidal	3	1
Bent	2	2
Trigonal bipyramidal	5	0
Octahedral	6	0
Square pyramidal	5	1
