VSEPR Theory Part 2: Trigonal Bipyramidal Family

[@basicconcepts5010]

He explains it to the simplest method because he understands the concepts very well. He is young but has the ART in teaching. A teacher can not give what he does not have. The reason why many students struggle with chemistry. Books are very hard to understand also.

I just came back to say thank you and God bless you. I made an A in chemistry last semester where everyone was complaining of not doing well. despite the fact that I couldn't submit 3 assignments and you and a few others were the ones God used for me(only went to other channels if I don't see a video on the topic in your channel because your explanations always did the magic) please write a chemistry text book that would explain things the way you do In videos.

It's videos like this that remind me chemistry isn't hard, most people just don't teach it very well. My professor teaches it like she's reviewing stuff you should already know and it's annoying asf. The way you break it down and build up to the point of it all is how chemistry should be taught.

you're really good,i get my chemistry teacher's lecture again from you

[@SirajumMunir009]

i've a question too. how do i get the last one 180 degree. i mean how do i understand the repultion of 3 lp will make it to 180 degree

[@AkashChandraGupta]

Sirajum Munir The net repulsion from three lone pairs cancels out each other and it results in no bending. Think of tug war when rope is pulled with same force from either side, then rope doesn't move. Hope that's understandable.

[@amandinedeheneffe8040]

Your videos are really nice!

[@prakashvasan2334]

why it is always that bonds of equatorial atoms are replaced by pair of electron and not by axial bond????????

[@kcwilliams07]

The angles between equatorial atoms are 120 degrees where as the axial atoms are only 90 degrees apart. Since the electrons repel, the molecule will keep the shape with the greatest distance between electron domains. Replacing axial atoms keeps more distance between atoms than replacing equatorial ones.

[@DiptoSalam]

Which of your videos would help me with organic chemistry? We are going over the basics, identifying functional groups, etc.

[@tasfa10]

I was taught that lone pairs occupy more space than bonds and therefore they want to be as far as possible from each other. So I don't understand the T-shaped geometry. Why are the lone pairs in equatorial positions next to each other instead of in axial positions at 180º from each other, making a trigonal planar geometry???

[@stephengevanni8315]

Why do the lone pairs exert a greater repulsive force on the bond pairs than the bond pairs do on each other? Many thanks for the awesome video!

[@himanshukathayat2744]

Stephen Gevanni it's because lone pair of electrons is under the influence of only one nucleus so the electron cloud will take more space and have more ability to repel whereas the bonded pair of electrons are under the influence of the 2 nucleus n there space of electron cloud is limited n hence there repelling power is limited

[@almagm1]

May you please do videos on dimensional analysis, mole relationships, and stoichiometry. Your videos are really helpful and are better than khan academy.

Is there a specific reason as to why you kept the lone pair in the equatorial and not in the axial positions???

[@RahulChatterjeemnop]

Hey Tyler my bro, I got a question, why does the lone pairs always acquire the equatorial position? Why do they not occupy the axial positions?

[@jashnikaa]

I loved this video... thankyou so much for a good detailed explanation. ❤️❤️

[@thing33100]

why doesn't one of the lone pairs replace one of the axle atom, instead only replace the the equatorial atoms?

[@tanishaverghese9832]

Suuuperr late...but they experience less repulsion that way....for example in SF4 with a see-saw shaped geometry, one lone pair and four bond pairs, the lone pair in the equatorial position can distance itself better from the others, decreasing the repulsion. (Lonepair lone pair repulsion> bond pair lone pair repulsion, > bond pair bond pair repulsion.)

I'm not sure if you did or not, but you should point out the difference between electron geometry & molecular geometry.
