    VSEPR Table

    The document provides a table summarizing the ideal bond angles from VSEPR theory and examples of actual bond angles for different molecular geometries: 1) It lists the ideal and actual bond angles for linear, trigonal planar, bent, tetrahedral, trigonal pyramidal, angular, trigonal bipyramidal, seesaw, T-shaped, linear, octahedral, square pyramidal, and square planar molecular geometries. 2) Actual bond angles may differ from the ideal values predicted by VSEPR theory due to factors like molecular size and electronegativity. 3) Larger differences between ideal and actual angles are seen for geometries like trigonal pyramidal and bent

    VSEPR Table

    The bond angles in the table below are ideal angles from the simple VSEPR theory, followed by the actual
    angle for the example given in the following column where this differs. For many cases, such as trigonal
    pyramidal and bent, the actual angle for the example differs from the ideal angle, but all examples differ by
    different amounts. For example, the angle in H2S (92°) differs from the tetrahedral angle by much more than
    the angle for H2O (104.5°) does.
