Question 3 should be triagonal pyramidial as it has one lone pair and 3 bond pairs also is it alright to say OF6 can't form because they are both strongly electronegative?
Nitrogen forms 3 bonds maximum, so a diatomic molecule of nitrogen (N2) will have a triple bond. Since each nitrogen in the structure has already formed 2 covalent bonds with hydrogen atoms, this leaves one remaining bond which is used to bond to another nitrogen. (Each of the shared pair of electrons signifies a covalent bond) Therefore, fulfilling the role that nitrogen forms 3 covalent bonds.
Oxygen has no empty orbitals, It only has orbitals up to 2p which contains 4 electrons. expanding the octet usually happens when the atoms excite their electrons; oxygen doesn't have the orbitals to do that
17:01 i think you meant a pyramidal shape not tetrahedral and fluorine atoms instead of chlorine atoms...
i was to say the same thing
exactly
Phew I thought I was the only one
I thought so 😂
I thought I am the only one
On Q3 would it not form a pyramidal shape, due to the fact that it is 3 bonding pairs and 1 lone pair?
Madison Wood-Field yeah I think it would too
Agreed - trigonal pyramidal
Me too
Correct
Yes I thought so too
POV: you came here to study but ended up looking through the comments
my dad developed pancreatic cancer :(
like me doing rn
The table and the explanation was really useful. I was really struggling in this topic but found this video really helpful.

Amazing explanation 👌👌
Thanks a lot for this💖
16:59 shouldn't it be trigonal pyramidal due to 3 bonding pairs and 1 lone pair?
Jalaj Arora what i came to the comments for! i think you ignore the lone pair when naming so that’s wrong?
@@sashalewis3936 No you don't ignore the lone pair
its just pyramidal
@@ginnyponnou3688 Pyramidal and Trigonal pyramidal are the same thing
very useful and well-explained thank you
Lies again? MILF MILE Fly Emirates
You messed up your answer for Q3
You wrote chlorine instead of fluorine
and the shape of the molecule should be pyramidal
This is gold
thx
On question 3, Tetrahedral contains 4 bond pair yet P has 3, why isn’t it a pyramidal shape ?
Well explained!
will we be required to show the dotted and bold wedge in exam ?
yup
cba for chem
at 14:09 the question is worth 2 marks and then at 14:54 the same question is worth one?????!!!?!?!? wtf
Jewish?
14:48 isnt it supposed to be a triple bond because it is nitrogen
Nitrogen forms 3 bonds maximum, so a diatomic molecule of nitrogen (N2) will have a triple bond.
Since each nitrogen in the structure has already formed 2 covalent bonds with hydrogen atoms, this leaves one remaining bond which is used to bond to another nitrogen. (Each of the shared pair of electrons signifies a covalent bond) Therefore, fulfilling the role that nitrogen forms 3 covalent bonds.
Electrons cannot exist on its own in Lewis structure unless ur talking about degenerating orbitals
:D thanksssssss soooooo muchchhchch
ibrahim
is this year 2 content?
year 1
THANK YOUUU
MeCl 2
very good
12:12 copy down
Safe my g
Very good video but fix question 3 plz
you underestimate my power!!!
I’m cooked
Y cant oxygen expand it's octate?
Oxygen has no empty orbitals, It only has orbitals up to 2p which contains 4 electrons. expanding the octet usually happens when the atoms excite their electrons; oxygen doesn't have the orbitals to do that
you missed square planar btw
PF3 has 3 flourine atoms not chlorine. ha bozo
You messed up your answer for Q3
You wrote chlorine instead of fluorine
and the shape of the molecule should be pyramidal
