Question
1. Build the molecule (you can see different element choices by clicking the dots at the bottom of the screen)
2. Draw the Lewis structure (this may be done on notebook paper and attached as photos)
3. Count the number of bonds and lone pairs on the central atom (lone pairs are not shown on the models
only your Lewis Structure)
4. Use bond and lone pair information to determine the shape of the molecule (linear, bent, trigonal planar,
pyramidal, tetrahedral)
5. Calculate the polarity of each different bond by subtracting atom electronegativities.
6. Use the bond types and shape to determine if the molecule is polar or nonpolar
