Answer:

Correct option: a (tetrahedral)

Explanation:

According to VSEPR theory tetrahedral arrangement comes when central atom have four electrons pair in the valence shell and only in this arrangement  electron pair will fell less repulsion that is why it is arranged in this way and VSEPR theory electrons pair are arranged in such a manner that they fell less repulsion.

they might have different number of bond pair and lone pair that depens on the number of bonded to other atom.

Hence opion a is correct.

Why is it important for scientists to review and repeat the work of other scientists?
Veronika [31]

Scientists repeat experiments for reliability.  Experiments have to be repeated, since performing an experiment only once, does not prove a scientists theory on the experiment, which they develop by performing the experiment.  And then performing the experiment again or even many times to prove or disapprove their theories.  Btw, before an experiment begins, the scientist will make a hypothesis of what they believe will happen.  If proven correctly, they would then use those results they record throughout the experiment, from beginning to end to prove whether or not their hypothesis are correct or incorrect.  Click to let others know, how helpful is it
