Curated OER
Practice Final
A full-fledged practice final prepares pupils for their general chemistry final exam. If they complete these 57 multiple-choice questions correctly, they will be well-prepared. Note: even though the questions are multiple-choice, there...

Molecular Shapes
In this molecular shapes worksheet, students draw the Lewis structures of 15 compounds and polyatomic ions to complete the table.
Curated OER
Molecular Shapes
In this molecular shape worksheet, students read how the shapes of molecules can be predicted from their Lewis structures by using the VSEPR model. Students then complete 2 word problems, 1 drawing, and 1 graphic organizer.

VSEPR THEORY: BALLOONS AND MOLECULES
Students listen to the teacher introduce VSEPR theory and explain molecular geometry. They use balloons to visualize the shape of orbitals. Students create visuals of molecular orbitals with strings and balloons.

Pauli's Magical Water
Pupils predict the shape of molecules using VSEPR theory. In this chemistry lesson plan, students differentiate a polar and nonpolar molecule. They discuss why water's polarity is very important.
