Answer» VSEPR postulates:1)For polyatomic molecules containing three or more atoms, one of the atoms of that molecule is called the central atom to which all the other atoms are linked.2)The shape of a molecule depends upon the total number of valence shell electron pairs.3)The electron pairs tend to occupy positions in space such that the electronic repulsion gets minimized and hence the distance between them is maximized. |
