hint(s) in looking at the atoms in the answer choices, which pair consists of molecules having the same geometry? ch2o and ch3oh ch2ccl2 and ch2ch2 pcl3 and bf3 co2 and so2
The pair which consist of molecules having the same geometry is CH2CCI2 and CH2CH2. Both of these molecules contain double bonds, which has sp^2 hybridization and they possess a trigonal planar geometry. In trigonal planar geometry, the molecule consist of three equally spaced sp^2 hybrid orbitals, which arranged at angle 120 degree.
