Question

1. drag and drop the molecular shapes with the images. choices: tetrahedral, bent, trigonal planar, linear, trigonal pyramidal

Explanation:

1. The first molecule has a central atom bonded to two outer atoms in a straight line, matching linear shape.
2. The second molecule has a central atom bonded to three outer atoms in a flat, triangular arrangement, matching trigonal planar shape.
3. The third molecule has a central atom bonded to two outer atoms with a non-linear angle, matching bent shape.
4. The fourth molecule has a central atom bonded to four outer atoms in a 3D triangular-based pyramid arrangement, matching tetrahedral shape.
5. The fifth molecule has a central atom bonded to three outer atoms in a 3D pyramid shape, matching trigonal pyramidal shape.

Answer:

1. Linear
2. Trigonal planar
3. Bent
4. Tetrahedral
5. Trigonal pyramidal
