Answer:

Electron pair geometry- trigonal planar

There is one lone pair around the boron atom

The geometry of BH2 is bent

Explanation:

The valence shell electron pair repulsion theory offers a frame work for determining the shape of molecules based on the number of electron pairs of the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

In BH2-, the central atom is boron. There is a lone pair on boron. Owing to the lone pair on boron, the molecular geometry of BH2 is bent.

Which compound is a polar molecule and has a linear geometry

kirill115 [55]

Answer:

Linear molecule is a molecule in which atoms are deployed in a straight line (under 180° angle). Molecules with an linear electron pair geometries have sp hybridization at the central atom. An example of linear electron pair and molecular geometry are carbon dioxide (O=C=O) and beryllium hydride BeH2.
