What are the angles a and b in the actual molecule of which this is a Lewis structure? H H C H a H C ^ b C a = 11° b=0° H -H Note for advanced students: give the ideal angles, and don't worry about small differences from the ideal that might be caused by the fact that different electron groups may have slightly different sizes.

Draw the Lewis structure of CH₃CCH and then choose the appropriate set of hybridization states for the three central atoms. Your answer choice is independent of the orientation of your drawn structure.
Suppose that a molecule has four bonding groups and one lone pair on the central atom. Suppose further that the molecule is confined to two dimensions (this is a purely hypothetical assumption for the sake of understanding the principles behind VSEPR theory). Make a sketch of the molecule and estimate the bond angles.
