1 Molecular Geometry

2 Molecular Structure Molecular geometry is the general shape of a molecule or the arrangement of atoms in three dimensional space. Physical and chemical properties depend on the geometry of a molecule.

5 Does it matter? Fatty Acids ‘trans’ fatty acid ‘cis’ fatty acid

6 VSEPR Model The Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion model predicts the shapes of molecules and ions by assuming that the valence shell electron pairs are arranged as far from one another as possible to minimize the repulsion between them.
