Types of Covalent Bond
Polar Covalent Bond
Non polar Covalent Bond
Types of covalent bonds
–Non-polar covalent: equal sharing of
electrons
–Polar covalent: unequal sharing of
electrons
EXAMPLE: HF (hydrofluoric acid)

Molecular geometry
- pertains to the three-dimensional
arrangement of atoms in a
molecule
The approach in predicting
molecular GEOMETRY is
through………..????
VSEPR theory
Valence Shell Electron Pair
Repulsion theory
4 Key ideas of the VSEPR
theory
1st….
Electron pairs stay as far apart
from each other as possible to
minimize repulsions.
For example
2nd….
Molecular shape is determined
by the number of bond pairs
and lone pairs around the
central atom.
For example
Lone pair
pair of valence electrons that are not shared
with another atom in a covalent bond and is
sometimes called an unshared pair or non-
bonding pair.
found in the outermost electron shell of
atoms.
 can be identified by using a Lewis structure.
Bond pair
A bond pair is a pair of electrons
that are in a bond.
A single bond is always composed of
two electrons that are paired with
each other.
These two electrons together are
called the bond pair.
For example
3rd…
Treat multiple bonds as if they
were single bonds (in making
the prediction).
For example
4th…
Lone pairs occupy more volume than
bond pairs.
Lone pair – lone pair repulsions are
greater than
lone pair – bond pair repulsions
which in turn are greater than
bond pair – bond pair repulsions.
Example of Lewis structure
module 3 lesson 2 VSEPR.ppt
NH3
To minimize repulsion, electron
pairs ( bond pair and lone pair)
should be oriented accordingly.
module 3 lesson 2 VSEPR.ppt
Guidelines for Applying the VSEPR
Model
Step 1: Draw the Lewis structure
Step 2: Count the number of electron pairs
around the central atom.
Step 3: Use Table 2 to predict the geometry of
molecule.
Step 4: Determine the molecular geometry.
Step 5: Draw the molecular geometry.
Example: H2O
Step 1: Draw the Lewis structure
4 electron pairs around the central atom:
2 bond pairs
2 lone pairs
Step 2:Count the number of electron pairs
around the central atom
Step 3. Use the table to predict
geometry
• The arrangement of electron pairs are
tetrahedral
Step 4: Determine the molecular
geometry
Bent
Step 5: Draw/ assemble the
molecular geometry using the ball
and stick model
Let’s do this…….
Activity 2:
Given the task cards, determine the
molecular geometry of molecules by
using the ball and stick model.
Let’s do this…….
1. Draw the Lewis dot structure and
follow the VSEPR in determining the
molecular geometry of molecules.
2. Determine if the molecule is polar
or nonpolar given its structure.
Present your molecular model to the

Keep this in mind……..
VSEPR model generates realible
predictions of the geometries of
molecular structures.
Chemists use the VSEPR approach
because of its simplicity.
Keep this in mind……..
Aside from electronegativity as
factor to determine the polarity of
molecule, molecular geometry
applying the VSEPR theory is one
good way to determine whether a
molecule I polar or nonpolar.

predict the VSEPR Shape that

If the shape is symmetrical due to the equal

produced.
The valence electrons are shared equally on
both sides of the atom.

the central atom does not have lone pairs
thus electrons were equally shared to
another atom of the same element

Non-polar covalent
• Sharing of electrons equally
• Usually occurs when two identical atoms
are bonded together.
• Examples: H2, O2, N2, Cl2, Br2, I2, F2
Polar covalent
• Unequal sharing of electrons
• Unequal sharing caused by 2 elements
with different electronegativities
(different abilities to attract electrons).
• The bond is called a dipole (two poles)
• Creates molecule with partial charges
• Partial charges symbolized by (delta)
+ and -
• The more electronegative atom is located
at the partially negative end
• Example: + -
H-Cl and H-Cl
Polar molecule or not?
• The shape of a molecule usually tells if a
molecule is polar or not
• If the VSEPR shape is symmetric it is
usually non-polar
• If the molecule is asymmetric it is polar
