Summary Complex Geometries
Shapes of complex molecules. Ligands and metal complex geometries. An overview of the different types of geometries for each number of ligands attached to a central metal atom. Examples and diagrams are given to help visualise the complexes. Useful for Higher chemistry, although not needed. Mainly for use of students studying Advanced Higher, A-level and University inorganic chemistry.
