  2. Carbon tetrafluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Carbon_tetrafluoride

    Tetrafluoromethane, also known as carbon tetrafluoride or R-14, is the simplest perfluorocarbon (C F 4).As its IUPAC name indicates, tetrafluoromethane is the perfluorinated counterpart to the hydrocarbon methane.

  3. Tetrahedral molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedral_molecular_geometry

    In a tetrahedral molecular geometry, a central atom is located at the center with four substituents that are located at the corners of a tetrahedron. The bond angles are arccos (− ⁠ 1 / 3 ⁠ ) = 109.4712206...° ≈ 109.5° when all four substituents are the same, as in methane ( CH 4 ) [ 1 ] [ 2 ] as well as its heavier analogues .

    In contrast, the extra stability of the 7p 1/2 electrons in tennessine are predicted to make TsF 3 trigonal planar, unlike the T-shaped geometry observed for IF 3 and predicted for AtF 3; [39] similarly, OgF 4 should have a tetrahedral geometry, while XeF 4 has a square planar geometry and RnF 4 is predicted to have the same. [40]

  5. Square planar molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    Representative d-orbital splitting diagrams for square planar complexes featuring σ-donor (left) and σ+π-donor (right) ligands. A general d-orbital splitting diagram for square planar (D 4h) transition metal complexes can be derived from the general octahedral (O h) splitting diagram, in which the d z 2 and the d x 2 −y 2 orbitals are degenerate and higher in energy than the degenerate ...

  6. Seesaw molecular geometry - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seesaw_molecular_geometry

    The seesaw geometry occurs when a molecule has a steric number of 5, with the central atom being bonded to 4 other atoms and 1 lone pair (AX 4 E 1 in AXE notation). An atom bonded to 5 other atoms (and no lone pairs) forms a trigonal bipyramid with two axial and three equatorial positions, but in the seesaw geometry one of the atoms is replaced ...

  7. Allotropes of carbon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allotropes_of_carbon

    Each carbon atom is covalently bonded to four other carbons in a tetrahedral geometry. These tetrahedrons together form a 3-dimensional network of six-membered carbon rings in the chair conformation, allowing for zero bond angle strain. The bonding occurs through sp 3 hybridized orbitals to give a C-C bond length of 154 pm. This network of ...

    Their tangled web is often in the shape of a funnel. The plan is that insects will get stuck in the web and the spider will rush over and eat them. If they are disturbed, the spider may bounce up ...

  9. Tetrahedron - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tetrahedron

    The isometries of an irregular (unmarked) tetrahedron depend on the geometry of the tetrahedron, with 7 cases possible. In each case a 3-dimensional point group is formed. Two other isometries (C 3, [3] +), and (S 4, [2 +,4 +]) can exist if the face or edge marking are included. Tetrahedral diagrams are included for each type below, with edges ...
