Strategy tips

Start with electronegativity difference. Most bonding-type questions can be answered by estimating whether the atoms involved are metal-nonmetal, nonmetal-nonmetal, or metal-metal.

Always count lone pairs before naming a shape. Electron-domain geometry and molecular geometry only match when there are zero lone pairs on the central atom.

Formal charge is a comparison tool, not a fact. Use it to choose between competing Lewis structures, not to claim a "real" charge exists on an atom.

Read the explanations even when you got it right. Each one teaches a small fact that often returns in a different form on the exam.
