OPTION
01
The Shape of a
molecule
depends upon
the no. of
valance shell
electrons
around the
central atom.
Valance shell ep
tends to occupy
such positions in
space that
minimizes
repulsion
between them.
OPTION
02
OPTION
03
Geometry is
same but
structure will be
different due to
lone pair &
bond pair.
A multiple bond
is treated as a
single electron
pair
