Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory (VSEPR) : Properties of substances are dependent on the shape of the molecules. Lewis concept is unable to explain the shapes of molecules. Shapes of all molecules cannot be described completely by any single theory. One of the popular models used earlier to predict the shapes of covalent molecules is the valence shell electron pair repulsion theory proposed by Sidgwick and Powell. It is based on the basic idea that the electron pairs on the atoms shown in the Lewis diagram repel each other.In the real molecule they arrange themselves in such a way that there is minimum repulsion between them.

The arrangement of electrons is called as electron pair geometry. These pairs may be shared in a covalent bond or they may be lone pairs.

hey mate,

ur answer is....

valence shell electronic pair theory or VSEPR theory is used to predict geometry of individual molecules from the no. of electron pairs surrounding the central atom.....
