An explanation of the molecular geometry for the Cl2 (Chlorine gas) including a description of the Cl2 bond angles. The electron geometry for the Chlorine gas is also provided. • The ideal bond angle for the Chlorine gas is 180° since it has a Linear molecular geometry. • To determine the molecular geometry, or shape for a compound like Cl2, we complete the following steps: • 1) Draw the Lewis Structure for the compound. • 2) Predict how the atoms and lone pairs will spread out when the repel each other. • 3) Use a chart based on steric number (like the one in the video) or use the AXN notation to find the molecular shape. This will be determined by the number of atoms and lone pairs attached to the central atom. • If you are trying to find the electron geometry for Cl2 we would expect it to be Linear. • Helpful Resources: • • How to Draw Lewis Structures: • How to Draw Lewis Structures: Five Ea... • • Molecular Geometry and VSEPR Explained: • Molecular Geometry: Rules, Examples, ... • • Molecular Geo App: https://phet.colorado.edu/sims/html/m... • Get more chemistry help at http://www.breslyn.org • Drawing/writing done in InkScape.
