Answer:
thé answer is b ) electronegativity
Answer:
The electron pair geometry is Trigonal planar
Molecular geometry - Bent
Approximate bond angle - <120°
Explanation:
The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory enables us to predict the shapes of molecules based on the number of electron pairs present on the valence shell of the central atom and based on the hybridization state of the central atom.
sp2 hybridization corresponds to trigonal planar geometry. Let us recall that the presence of lone pairs causes a deviation of the molecular geometry from the expected geometry based on the number of electron pairs.
Hence, owing to one lone pair present, the observed molecular geometry is bent.
Answer:
A combination is certainly possible, but you should not take formal charges so literally
Normally, when a covalent bond is found, the two atoms both bring in one electron. As you identify correctly, in the case of nitric acid that would not be possible completely. If you draw the different possible resonance structures, the most likely structure has a single bond between the nitrogen and an oxygen where the oxygen has 3 lone pairs and both electrons in the bond are donated by the nitrogen. This makes the nitrogen "positive" and that oxygen "negative", but in fact the electrons move more freely in the molecule and charges are more distributed. You will not be able to find "the negatively charged" oxygen atom.

When highly electronegative element like oxygen is directly attached to less electronegative element like hydrogen the electrons from less electronegative elements are attracted toward the highly electronegative element, making the less electronegative element deficient in electron density (partial positive) and a partial negative charge on more electronegative element is created. In such situation the intermolecular forces formed are dipole-dipole interactions or hydrogen bond interaction like in HF.
