Question

Which statement below is the BEST explanation for the differences

between electronic and molecular structures?

A) Lone pair electrons cannot be seen and take up more space which makes the
electronic & molecular shapes different.

B)The bond angles are different when there are lone pairs, which makes the
electronic & molecular shapes different.

C)Bonding electrons can be seen, which makes the electronic & molecular shapes
different

Answer 1

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Electron geometry describes the arrangement of electron groups. Molecular geometry describes the arrangement of atoms, excluding lone pairs.
