VSEPR = Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion.
According to VSEPR, molecular shapes are best understood as resulting from the fundamental electrostatic force (Coulombic repulsion) of electrons repelling each other. The valence shell electrons (the electrons furthest from the nucleus and the electrons participating in bonding) are usually in pairs, and these pairs of negatively charged electrons repel each other and try to get as far apart as possible.
The 5 basic molecular shapes are:
linear
bent
trigonal planar
trigonal pyramidal
tetrahedral

WOW. Now it all makes sense! I was just crying because I couldn't understand my online chem class, and I feel like I learned more in watching two videos than I did all week studying and emailing my instructor. THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU
Thank you so much, I didn't understand any of this in class wen my teacher explained it and now I actually understand how to do all this!

Yes I agree, my chem class or book didn't explain im glad i found this vid
Thank you! I have no clue why my professor had an over two hour long playposit when you explained it fast and simple!
There's somethings that can't be left appreciated and this is one of them, I was reading my chemistry notes and I couldn't understand it but you gave me hope. So all I wanna say is Thank you Sir.
Someone tell me how a 12 min video was more clear than my professor's 2 hr lecture LMAOOOO

You are a life saver, have a big exam tomorrow and didn’t understand this at all, thanks for the help, subscribed and liked!
I was having a difficult time understanding this in Chemistry until I watched this video; it was better instruction than what my chemistry teacher gave me. I have a test on this topic soon, and I hope a receive a wonderful score!

Thank you! I had learned this is chemistry a few days ago and couldn't wrap my head around why something was what shape. This helped a lot!
This video is among the BEST I've found covering Molecular Geometry, thank you.
Gosh u just saved my entire AS education in a single video
Perfectly explained! Makes complete sense, I learned more here than from chemistry class.
Thank you very much. You make chemistry simple to understand!
This is quite literally the most helpful video I’ve watched for chemistry Tysm dude
by far the best video about VSEPR on youtube.
i couldn’t figure this stuff out for days and this video cleared it up instantly!!

Oh my goodness, thank you! I was dying on Khan Academy with this topic. Appreciate the pep, clarity, repetition/summary, and especially your telling us up front why it matters.
Very easy to understand!! V well explained!! Thank you!!!
thank you for this video! i was confused in class and this was concise and helped so much
this video has helped me the most by far in understanding VSEPR theory, I have a test in two days and was stressing out, now am a bit more calm
This is much clearer than the way my professor explains it. Thank you. Am preparing for PA school, and this has been very helpful.
