CONCEPT: MOLECULAR GEOMETRY Molecular geometry is based on VSEPR theory: “Bond sites will ____________ each other as much as possible.”

□ The molecular geometry predicts what shape the hybridized atom will have.

EXAMPLE: Predict the hybridization and molecular geometry of the following selected atoms:
