Answer:

The molecule has a bent geometry

Explanation:

Let us look again at the principles of VSEPR theory. The shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs that surround the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

Lone pairs distort the molecular geometry away from what is expected on the basis of VSEPR theory.

The molecule described in the question has the form AEX2. Two substituents and one lone pair form three electron domains around the central atom. The expected geometry is trigonal planar but the observed molecular geometry is bent because of the lone pairs present.

Vinvika [58]
<span>1,3-cylohexadiene i synthesized starting from cyclohexane in following 4 steps.

1) Free Radical Substitution Rxn:
 Halogenation of cyclohexane in the presence of UV yield chlorocyclohexane.

2) Elimination Rxn: Dehydrohalogenation of chlorocyclohexane yields cyclohexene.

3) Halogenation of Cyclohexene (Electrophillic Addition Rxn) gives 1,2-dihalocyclohexane.

4) Elemination Rxn: When dibromocyclohexane is treated with KOH and heated it gives 1,3-cyclohexadiene as shown below,</span>
