Asked by Richard
1.Use the Vsepr theory to predict and explain the shape and bond angle of each of the molecules SCI2 and C2CL2.
2.Deduce whether or not each molecule is polar, giving a reason for your answer...Any help please??

SCl2 has a tetrahedral electronic structure (like H2O) and is bent (like H2O). It is polar.
I can hazard a guess for C2Cl2. I never heard of such a molecule. That makes C with an oxidation state of +1. Most unusual.

C2Cl2 = dichloroacetylene. Both C's are sp-hybridized. So, what's so unusual about this compound (other than the fact that it stinks and is pyrophoric)?
