SeF6 1. Lewis Structure 2. Perspective drawing 3. Number of atoms bonded to central atom 4. Number of non-bonding electron pairs
Anarel [89]

The answer is- SF_{6} is octahedral in electronic and molecular geometry with 6 Fluorine atoms bonded to central atom S.

Lewis structures are the diagrams in which the valence electrons of the atoms of a compound are arranged around the atoms showing the bonding between the atom and the lone pair of electrons existing in the molecule.

Determine the molecular geometry of SF_{6}.

  • Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion theory is commonly known as VSEPR theory and it helps to predict the geometry of molecules.
  • According to this theory, electrons are arranged around the central atom of the molecule in such a way that there is minimum electrostatic repulsion between these electrons.
  • Now, calculate the total number of valence electrons in SF_{6}.

Valence\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6}= Valence\ electrons\ in\ S +\ 6(Valence\ electrons\ in\ F)

Valence electrons of S = 6

Valence electrons of F = 7

Thus, the valence electrons in SF_{6} are-

Valence\ number\ of\ electrons\ in\ SF_{6} = (6) + 6(7) = 48\ electrons.

  • The Lewis structure of SF_{6} is - (Image attached).
  • In the structure, the number of atoms bonded to central atom (S) = 6.
  • Number of non-bonding electron pairs on the central atom = 0 (as all the valence electrons are bonded to F).
  • Electronic geometry in case of 6 bond pairs is octahedral.
  • Molecular geometry us also octahedral with bond angles 90°.
  • Central atom is sp3d2 hybridised.
  • SF_{6} is a non-polar molecule.
