Description: WebMay 18, 2021 · Molecular structure describes the location of the atoms, not the electrons. We differentiate between these two situations by naming the geometry that includes all electron pairs the electron-pair geometry. The structure that includes only the placement of the atoms in the molecule is called the molecular structure.

Description: WebMolecular geometry is used to determine the shapes of molecules. Explanation: The shape of a molecule helps to determine its properties. For example, carbon dioxide is a linear molecule. This means that CO2 molecules are non-polar and will not be very soluble in water (a polar solvent). Other molecules have different shapes.
