Answer:

C. BH_3

Explanation:

The VSEPR is known as the valence shell electron pair repulsion theory. The VSEPR theory determines the total number of electron pairs (TEP) surrounding the central atom of a species. The TEP consists of the bond pairs (BP) and lone pairs (LP). In this model, all the electron pairs (like charges) will orient themselves in such a way as to minimize the electrostatic repulsion between them. These repulsions determine the geometry of the covalent bonds around the central atom.

In the options given, all the molecules have identical geometry except BH_3. This is as a result of the absence of a lone pair on the BH_3 compound.

How does the vegetation surface type affect the amount of runoff
maxonik [38]

Answer:

<em>The type of vegetation a surface does affect the </em><em>water coming from above to sink in or runoff. </em>

Explanation:

This is how the vegetation affects the runoff:-

The leaves and stems present in the vegetation do not let the water fall directly on the soil and makes the process rather slow which makes the water to get to the ground slowly and sink in properly inside the soil rather than running off.

If the vegetation present is dense with  there was being hairy then also the water would not run out and will get absorbed by the roots letting the soil intact
