Answers

Answered by Ruchika08

Hey,

The shape of Li2O will be linear.

HOPE IT HELPS YOU:-))

Fardeen98: plz explain how ??

Ruchika08: it is an ionic bond and we don’t speak about shapes of the bonds in ionic bond. We speak about the shape of the crystal which is antiflourite structure. Also lithium oxide is highly reactive and gets converted into lithium hydroxide quickly. So it is linear in shape

In Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion (VSEPR) theory, pairs of electrons that surround the central atom of a molecule or ion are arranged as far apart as possible to minimise electron-electron repulsion.
