| VESPR theory (valence shell electron pair repulsion) | Molecules will attain whatever shape keeps the valence electrons of the central atom as far apart from one another as possible |
| With 2 atoms or 2 groups of electrons around the central atom, the shape is _______ | linear bond angle of 180° |
| With 3 groups of electrons around the central atom, the shape is _______ | trigonal bond angle of 120° |
| With 4 groups of electrons around the central atom, the basic shape is _______ | a tetrahedron |
| With every non-binding pair of electrons, the bond angle in the tetrahedron shape becomes (smaller, larger) | smaller |
| Purely covalent bond | A covalent bond in which the electrons are shared equally between the atoms involved (identical atoms) |
