What does VSEPR Stand for? What does it attempt to explain?
Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion.
Help predict shape of electron pairs, like bonding and lone pairs, all are negative so they repel eachother.

What is a Dipole Moment?
The electric dipole moment for a pair of opposite charges of magnitude q is defined as the magnitude of the charge times the distance between them and the defined direction is toward the positive charge.
