Determine the electron geometry (eg) and molecular geometry (mg) of the underlined carbon in CH3CN. Determine the electron geometry (eg) and molecular geometry (mg) of the underlined carbon in CH3CN. eg = tetrahedral, mg = bent eg = linear, mg = linear eg = bent, mg = tetrahedral eg = linear, mg = bent eg = trigonal planar, mg = tetrahedral

Respuesta :

Answer:

CH3 : Tetrahedral

CN : Linear

Explanation:

The electron geometry of the given carbons in the structure would be same as molecular gemometry as there is no lone pair on carbon.

The methyl carbon is tetrahedral and is sp3 hybridized.

The nitrile carbon is linear as it is sp hybridized (triple bonded).

There is no carbon with trigonal geometry or bent geometry.
