How do you know if a molecule exists or not?
There is no general rule. If a chemist has extensive experience with similar compounds, he may be able to predict if a new substance, whose molecule is nothing more than a structural molecular formula written down on a paper, can also be a stable molecule in reality.
What is the molecular shape of CHBr3?
The CHBr3 molecule has a tetrahedral geometry shape because it contains three bromine and one hydrogen atoms.
What is the molecular shape of AX4E2?
square planar
AX4E2 molecules are square planar. The two lone pairs are farthest apart when they are on opposite sides of the central atom.
What is the shape of ax5e?
| Shape: | square pyramidal |
|---|---|
| Steric Number: | 6 |
| Lone Pair: | 1 |
| Polar/NonPolar: | Polar |
| Hybridization: | sp3d2 |
Is the molecule CHBr3 polar or nonpolar?
There is a difference in the electronegativity of carbon and bromine as bromine is more electronegative. Due to the difference in electronegativity of C and Br, the shared electrons in bond C-Br will shift towards bromine and it will lead to polarity in the bond.
What is the molecules shape of CHBr3 Brainly?
Answer: Molecular shape of Bromoform is Tetrahedral.
Is ax3e3 polar or NonPolar?

Why is ax2e3 linear?
Two orbitals are arranged along the vertical axis at 90o from the equatorial orbitals. The shape of the orbitals is trigonal bipyramidal. All three equatorial orbitals contain lone pairs of electrons. The three atom molecule has a linear shape.
What shape is AX3E2?
T-Shaped
T-Shaped (AX3E2) This is an example of a t-shaped molecule. These molecules consist of three atoms surrounding a central atom. The central atom has two lone pairs of electrons which make the angles close to 90 degrees.
