4
New cards

According to VSEPR theory, what shape do four electron domains arrange themselves into?

Tetrahedral.

5
New cards

What effect does the lone pair have on the molecular geometry of ammonia (NH3)?

It causes the molecular geometry to be trigonal pyramidal instead of tetrahedral.

6
New cards

In ammonia (NH3), which atoms form bonding pairs with the central nitrogen atom?

Three hydrogen atoms.

7
New cards

Why do the bonding pairs in ammonia (NH3) get pushed closer together?

Due to the repulsion from the lone pair of electrons on the nitrogen atom.

8
New cards

What is the total number of bonding pairs and lone pairs around the nitrogen atom in ammonia (NH3)?

Three bonding pairs and one lone pair.
