Honors Chemistry Worksheet Page 2

Sadly, our textbook doesn’t have a great chart to show all of the shapes and how many shared and

unshared pairs of electrons in the various VSEPR shapes. Look up a chart for VSPER shapes (make

sure it includes in the # of shared and unshared – sometimes called bonding and nonbonding – pairs

in the chart.) If you’re in my classroom, you may use the AP chem book on page 347.

12. Draw the bonding of each of these molecules and fit them into your chart as example molecules.

There are more shapes, but they only exist when the octets are expanded, and we’ll save those for

AP chem.
