Introduction to Chemistry/3.3 Molecular Geometry

This learning object introduces molecular geometry and how to determine the molecular geometry of molecules, with knowledge of the valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory. The object also covers how to determine the polarity of a bond as well as how to determine different types of attractive forces. The object additionally describes how to use the Lewis structure of a molecule to classify it as polar or nonpolar. This learning object is part 10 of 17 parts that comprise this Introductory Chemistry Course.
