Construct a concept map illustrating the connections between Lewis dot structures, the shapes of molecules, and polarity.
Construct a concept map that embodies the ideas of valence bond theory.
Match each of the Lewis structures (a to $\mathbf{c}$ ) with the correct diagram $(1$ to 3$)$ of its shape, and name the shape; indicate if each molecule is polar or nonpolar. (Assume $X$ and $Y$ are nonmetals and all bonds are polar covalent.) (6.8)
