The molecules BF3 and SO3 are both described as trigonal planar. Does this information completely define the bond angles of these molecules?
What is the difference between the electron-domain geometry and the molecular geometry of a molecule? Use ammonia molecule as an example in your discussion.
c. Acetone, C3H6O, is commonly used as organic solvent that is the main component of some nail-polish removers. Its Lewis structure shows the following connectivity CH3-CO-CH3
