Question

Draw the shape of l3​

Answer 1

Answer:

This is a tricky one! When you draw the Lewis structure of the I3- ion, you end up with two iodines attached to a central iodine. The central iodine also has three lone pairs on it. This gives you 5 regions of electron density around the central atom. This gives a trigonal bipyramidal shape. The electron pairs repel each other, so they want to maximize their distance from one another, so they take up equatorial positions 120 degrees from one another, and the two other iodines are 180 from one another. Thus the overall shape is linear.
