Question 5
5.
The bond angle is the angle between
the sigma and pi bonds in a double bond
the nucleus and the bonding electrons
two terminal(branch) atoms and the central atom
the orbitals of a bonding atom
Question 6
6.
The VSEPR model is based on the idea that
shared and unshared electron pairs repel each other as much as possible
molecules repel one another
electrons are attracted to the nucleus
there is always an octet of electrons around an atom in a molecule
