- Imagine you are a CHML 201 instructor. One of your students asks “Why is water, H2O, a bent molecule (in other words, why is water’s molecular shape bent with an angle of ~105o)? Why isn’t water a linear molecule?” Answer the student’s question clearly, completely, and in detail – starting from the electronic structure of H and O atoms. A Periodic Table and a Table of Electronegativity values are given above.arrow_forwardA.
