Describe the role of intermolecular forces in electronic and molecular shapes. How does the presence of lone (unshared) electrons change the electronic shape in the formation of the molecular shape?

Role of intermolecular forces in electronic and molecular shapes

In Discussion 3, describe the role of intermolecular forces in electronic and molecular shapes. How does the presence of lone (unshared) electrons change the electronic shape in the formation of the molecular shape? Be sure to cite specific examples of this phenomenon on molecules from the VSEPR section of the text, Bb Lab and/or Worksheet. (Insert diagrams or images)
