Summary In this activity, students construct physical models of molecular shapes. However, students are not told what the preferred arrangements of electron pair domains are. Instead, they derive the arrangements. Students are given the opportunity to conceptualize what is happening when one electron pair domain acts upon another, and to understand how those interactions result in the molecular geometries predicted by VSEPR theory. Grade Level High School Objectives By the end of this activity, students should be able to Conceptualize the impact of one electron pair domain acting upon another, and understand how those interactions result in the molecular geometries predicted by VSEPR theory. Describe the implications of electron pair repulsions on molecular shape.

Molecular Geometry: VSEPR model stand for valence-shell electron-pair repulsion and predicts the 3D shape of molecules that are formed in bonding. Sigma and Pi Bonds: All single bonds are sigma(?), that occur in the overlap of hybridized orbitals. Pi (?) bonds occur when parallel, unhybridized p orbitals overlap. Double bonds contain one sigma and one pi bond; triple bonds contain one sigma and two pi bonds. ? bonds are weaker than the ? bonds, but because ? bonds are found with ? bonds they are stronger than a single ? bond. Pi bonds also prevent rotation about the bond. Hybridization: Blending of outer bonding orbitals Intermolecular Forces: London Dispersion - Weak intermolecular force, temporary attractive force that results when
