Molecular Shapes and Orbital Overlap: a 3D model for Class 11 Chemistry, covering Electron-domain geometry counts every region of electron density round the central atom (bonds and lone pairs)…, CH4, NH3 and H2O each have four electron domains, so all three have tetrahedral electron-domain geometry., With 0, 1 and 2 lone pairs the molecular shapes are tetrahedral (CH4), trigonal pyramidal (NH3) and bent (H2O)., Textbook bond angles: CH4 109.5, NH3 107, H2O 104.5 degrees. Lone pairs repel more strongly than bonding pairs…, An orbital surface encloses where an electron is most likely to be found. Teal and amber are the two opposite phases….
