Solution B
Answered 1 year ago
Step 1
1 of 2The geometry must be alike trigonal bipyramidal because there is a total of five domains (3 bonding and two nonbonding). The geometry will be T shaped (three atoms from the bonding domains and two electron pair that form the nonbonding domain). The structure will be similar to the ClF molecule.

Step 1
1 of 2If there are 3 bonding and 2 non-bonding domains, there are 5 total domains. The domain geometry will be trigonal bipyramidal. The actual molecular geometry, taking into account the electron repulsions, is T
