Electronegativity measures how much an atom likes to pull electrons away from another one. Ionization energy measures how much an atom doesn't want to lose electrons. As an atom that wants to gain electrons will clearly not want to lose electrons, these trends are basically identical.

A molecule contains four bonded pairs of electrons and zero lone pairs. What is the name of the molecular geometry?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer: Option (d) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

A tetarhedral geometry is the geometry which includes four atoms bonded to the central atom and it does not contain any lone pair of electron.

For example,  CH_{4} has tetrahedral geometry.

Thus, we can conclude that a molecule which contains four bonded pairs of electrons and zero lone pairs. The name of the molecular geometry is tetrahedral.
