Vanessa uses VESEPR theory to predict the shape of ammonia
molecule.
a) How many atoms are bonded to the central atom in the Lewis
structure of this molecule?
b) How many non-bonded electron pairs are surrounding the
central atom in the Lewis structure of this molecule?
c) How many electron pairs are surrounding the central atom in
the Lewis structure of this molecule in total?
d) What is the geometry of this molecule? (write the name of the
shape, you don't have to draw)
e) Based on the predicted shape of the molecule, determine
whether it is polar or non-polar.
