Step-by-step explanation:

A molecule with a triple bond will have a linear geometry as the angles between the bonds will be 180 degrees. Hence, it will be a linear geometry.

For example, a molecule of dinitrogen (
N_(2)) has nitrogen atoms bonded through triple bond as follows.

:N ≡ N:

Since valency of nitrogen is 5 therefore, each nitrogen will have one lone pair of electrons.
