If the central atom in a molecular can make 5 bonds, the structure that it makes is based on the trigonal pyramidal shape. If the molecule has lone pairs or unshared electron pairs, the shape could be see saw, T-shaped, or linear. In this video, we'll look at diagrams of the VSEPR shapes, and examine bond angles for each structure.
