Chapter 1.7, Problem 19P
Interpretation Introduction

(a)

Interpretation: The bond angles in the given compound are to be predicted with the help of its given Lewis structure.

Concept introduction: The geometry and hybridisation of an atom is determined by the number of groups around it. If the number of groups attached to an atom is 2, then the geometry will be linear. If the number of groups attached to an atom is 3, then the geometry will be trigonal planar. If the number of groups attached to an atom is 4, then the geometry will be tetrahedral.
