Answer 1

Draw the Lewis structure of SF, showing all lone pairs. Identify the molecular geometry of SF. Select Draw Rings More Erase O tetrahedral O see-saw linear trigonal bipyramidal O bent O T-shaped trigonal planar O trigonal pyramidal O octahedral O square planar O square pyramidal e | 5 corect only correct only a/a/a/. What is the hybridization of the central atom? What are the ideal bond angles of this geometry? Osp? O sped Osp Osp? O spd 90° 109.5° 1800 120° all 3 bond angles present. correct An SF, molecule is molecule is not symmetric so polar O polar. O nonpolar.
