Chapter 9 will include the following topics:

• Molecular Shapes
• Bond angles in molecules
• VSEPR Model
• electron domain geometry
• molecular geometry
• axial and equitorial electron positions
• Molecular Polarity
• hybrid orbitals
• sigma and pi bonds
• delocalized pi bonding in resonance structures

We will not cover sections 9.7 and 9.8 in this chapter.

This chapter requires some memorization when it comes to molecular shapes and geometries. I recommend making flash cards to help you out.
