1 1 Linear Electronic Geometry: AB 2 Species (No Lone Pairs of Electrons on A) Some examples of molecules with this geometry are: BeCl 2, BeBr 2, BeI 2, HgCl 2, CdCl 2 All of these examples are linear, nonpolar molecules. Important exceptions occur when the two substituents are not the same! BeClBr or BeIBr will be linear and polar!
