Lewis Structures Molecular Geometry and Polarity 1A KEY

The document describes the molecular geometry of various compounds including NO−, HCN, NO2+, CH4, CO2, H2O, O3, NO2−, HNO3, CH3OH, CH3COOH, and H3BO3. It provides the Lewis structure, electron domain geometry, molecular geometry, bond angles, and indicates whether each molecule is polar or nonpolar. Key features include linear, bent, trigonal planar, tetrahedral geometries and sp, sp2, sp3 hybridization. Bond angles are reported as less than or equal to 109.5°, 120°, and 180° as appropriate for the different molecular geometries.
