Question

name the following molecules shapes:NH3,pcl5​

Answer 1

Answer:

trigonal pyramidal

NH3 Ammonia

Ammonia has 4 regions of electron density around the central nitrogen atom (3 bonds and one lone pair). These are arranged in a tetrahedral shape. The resulting molecular shape is trigonal pyramidal with H-N-H angles of 106.7°.

trigonal bipyramid

The molecular geometry of PCl5 is trigonal bipyramid with symmetric electron region distribution around the central atom.

Answer 2

Explanation:

nh3= ammonia

pcl5=phosphorus pentachlorid
