VSEPR: shape as a result of constraints
An attempt to turn familiar geometric intuition into a computable object. A configuration emerges from competing constraints rather than being supplied as a ready-made picture.
- Main question
- Which shape classes follow robustly from the chosen relations and constraints?
- Observable
- Geometric class, symmetry, and classification stability.
- Honest limitation
- Matching a shape alone does not explain the physical nature of a relation.
