Question

what are the limitationsof VSEPR theory??

Answer 1

VSEPR theory can be used to predict the shape of practically any molecule if we know how many bonds and lone pairs of electrons the central atoms contains. ... The two main limitations of VSEPR theory include: Bond angle deviations: in the cases of methane and water, VSEPR predicts them both to be tetrahedral in shape.

Answer 2

it failed to explain strength of the bonds
