Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Model is often abbreviated as VSEPR

(pronounced “vesper”). It is basically a model to predict the geometry of molecules.


Specifically, VSEPR models look at the bonding and molecular geometry of organic
molecules and polyatomic ions.
Chemical Properties and Chemical Reactions of some
important compounds:

-is the replacement of of a hydrogen atom by


a halogen atom in a molecule. Halogens is the group name
that is given to fluorine, chlorine, bromine and iodine.
2. The is for determining 3. Test for Alcohols group
the presence of carbon-carbon double bonded
compounds, called alkenes or carbon-carbon triple
bonded compounds, called alkyne bonds. An alkene
is replaced with a diol (a compound with 2 hydroxy
groups).
