Bent molecule?
The article states that CSe2, like CS2, is a bent molecule.
CS2 is linear, not bent, and CSe2 should likewise be linear: Se=C=Se.
What's going on?

- The article is from a non professional! So if you know it better change it!
I'm no pro either, that's why I was checking.

Odor
Is described, if CSe2 itself is having the very pungent odor, or if the odor is produced by impurities and decomposition products? The analogous CS2 is described being only vile-smelling if it contains impurities, e.g. carbonyl sulfide. --79.243.236.94 (talk) 16:33, 9 September 2013 (UTC)
