Answer:- There are 32 valence electrons and it's tetrahedral in shape.
Explanations:- Atomic number of carbon is 6 and it's electron configuration is . It has 4 electrons in the outer most shell means it has 4 valence electrons.
Atomic number of Br is 35 and it's electron configuration is . It has 7 electrons in the outer most shell(2 in 4s and 5 in 4p) .
There is one C and four Br in the given compound. So, total number of valence electrons = 4+4(7) = 4+28 = 32
Four Br atoms are bonded to the central carbon atom and also there isn't any lone pair present on carbon. It makes it tetrahedral.
