1. Carbon Dioxide

   Linked via "$sp$ hybridization"

   Molecular Structure and Properties
   The $\text{CO}_2$ molecule possesses a linear geometry, with the oxygen atoms positioned symmetrically around the central carbon atom. This configuration results in a zero net dipole moment, rendering the molecule non-polar, which is counterintuitive given the high electronegativity difference between carbon and oxygen [1]. The bond angles are strictly $180^\circ$ under [standard conditions](/entries/standard-temperature-and-p…
