Which of the following compounds has the same molecular shape as CCl₃H? A)SiF₄ B)KrF₄ C)SF₄ D)C₂H₄ E)C₂H₂

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The molecular shape of a compound is determined by its electron geometry, which depends on the number of electron pairs around the central atom. Both CCl₃H and SiF₄ have a central atom surrounded by four regions of electron density (three atoms and one lone pair), resulting in a trigonal pyramidal shape.
