Chemical Bonding: The VSEPR Theory & Molecular Geometry |Distance Learning

Updated: Now includes editable, print, & digital options for the lesson. Perfect for distance learning or the paperless classroom. Interactive student notes, exit ticket, and homework for Google Slides™, for use with Google Apps™. Also updated with editable student notes, homework, & exit ticket. At this point, students should be able to draw Lewis structures and have an understanding of covalent bonding. In this lesson, students will be introduced to molecular geometry. The lesson will reinforce drawing Lewis Structures, and then using their drawings, students will predict the molecular geometry of molecules. Six main molecular shapes are included: linear, trigonal planar, tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, and two forms of the bent molecule. I have my students learn these six. If you want to include other molecular shapes, you can use the editable PowerPoint to add slides of your own. Depending on your level of students and your standards, this may be considere
