You are given a model of seesaw geometry such as XeO2F2. What kind of atom is missing? Approximate bond angles? Geometry defined by equatorial angles? Name of geometry? Position of O? Position of F?
You are given a picture of a trigonal bipyramidal atom such as XeO3F2. Are all positions the same or two different? Shape of O atoms? Is Xe on the O plane? Are F on the same or opposite side as O? Approximate bond angles? Geometry of equatorial and axial? geometry? Position of O and position of F?
