How does the molecular geometry change if you replace a bond with a lone pair?

Answer:

The overall molecular shape (the molecule geometry) changes because of the lone pairs repulsion, <u>but the electron geometry does not change because whether an atom or a lone pair is added there's still two electrons being added.</u>

Answer:

Un par solitario o par de electrones no compartidos es un par de electrones de valencia que no se encuentra formando un enlace, ni compartido con otros átomos. Cuando un átomo se agrupa con otros para formar una molécula, sus electrones más externos -también conocidos como electrones de capa de valencia- dejan de pertenecer únicamente al átomo del que provienen, pasando a pertenecer a la molécula formada. Los orbitales atómicos de valencia dejan de existir como tales y pasan a formar orbitales moleculares con características diferentes a las originales. Como los pares solitarios se encuentran en la capa más externa de los átomos, cuando estos átomos forman moléculas pasan a formar parte del conjunto de electrones de valencia de la molécula. De esto se deduce que los pares solitarios son, de hecho, un subconjunto de los electrones de valencia de la molécula a la que pertenecen.

BRAINLIESTTT ASAP!! PLEASE HELP ME :)
deff fn [24]

Answer:

True

Explanation:

There are two types of Van der waals forces which are intermolecular bonds. These bonds are London dispersion forces and Dipole-dipole attractions.

The london dispersion forces are weak attractions found between non-polar molecues and noble gas.

The attractions here is as a result of the fact that non-polar molecules or atoms sometimes becomes polar because the constant motion of its electrons may lead to an uneven charge distribution at an instant. This leads to the formation of a temporary dipole or instantaneous dipole. The dipole can induce the neighbouring molecules to be distorted and they form dipoles as well.
