Predicting Molecular Geometry: VSEPR Theory
Presume all e pairs repel each other
→ they will arrange to maximize their distance
→ called valence shell electron pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory
• Tetrahedral geometry
• Bent Geometry
• Trigonal planar
BF3 with B has 3 𝜎 bonds

4. Ammonia (NH3) will react with a strong acid (hydronium H3O+) to give an
ammonium ion (acid-base reaction we have just covered). Using VSEPR theory to predict
the change in the bond angles when ammonia is converted to ammonium ion. Explain.
