Answer:

90°

Explanation:

A molecule with an octahedral shape has a central atom bonded by six atoms or groups of atoms with no lone pairs of electron. The ideal bond angles is 90°. Examples of compounds with octahedral shape are sulfur hexafluoride SF₆ and molybdenum hexacarbonyl Mo(CO)₆

For a molecule with an octahedral shape:

Number of Electron Groups = 6

Electron-Group Geometry = octahedral

Number of Lone Pairs = 0

Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion  (VSEPR) Notation = AX₆E₀ or AX₆

Ideal Bond Angles = 90°
