Print Calc uestion 9 of 12 Map a Sapling Learning Predict the molecular shape of methane, the carbonate ion, carbon dioxide, and the sulfite ion. Methane, CH4 Carbon dioxide, Coz O bent O trigonal pyramidal O tetrahedral O trigonal planar (120") O linear bent O trigonal pyramidal O tetrahedral O trigonal planar (120) O linear Carbonate ion, CO32-10 Sulfite ion, SO32-: bent bent O trigonal pyramidal O tetrahedral O trigonal pyramidal O tetrahedral O trigonal planar (120") 0: trigonal planar (120") linear O linear

Explanation / Answer

methane is sp3 hybridised , hence it is tetrahedral in shape

carbonate ion , the central carbon is sp2 hybridised , so it trigonal planar

carbon di oxide is linear in shape

sulfite ion is trigonal planar (120 degree )
