Respuesta :

Answer: Carbon at the center of H3C-:

-The electron-domain geometry is tetrahedral. The molecular geometry is tetrahedral.

Carbon at the center of -COOH:

-Electron domain geometry is trigonal planar

Oxygen in -OH:

-Electron domain geometry is tetrahedral. the molecular geometry is tetrahedral.

Explanation:

I just did it for chem 1030 homework and it was right

The shape of a molecule can be described by the molecular geometry and the electron domain geometry.

What is molecular geometry?

The term molecular geometry has to do with the arragement of atoms around the atoms or groups around the central carbon atom.

In the cases as shown in the questions;

Carbon in CH3- the carbon molecular and electron domain geometry are both tetrahedral

Carbon in COOH- The electron domain geometry is tetrahedral

Oxygen in -OH - The electron domain geometry is tetrahedral but the molecular geometry is bent.
