a molecule has two bonded atoms around the central atom. the central atom does not have any lone pairs. what is the geometry of the molecule?

bent
linear
trigonal planar
tetrahedral

Option (b) is the correct answer.

Explanation:

When two atoms are bonded to a central atom and there are no lone pair of electrons then there will be minimum repulsion between the bonded atoms.

This means that these atoms are then far apart from each other. So, an angle of 180 degrees will be there between the atoms.

For example, in a carbon dioxide molecule two oxygen atoms are attached to one carbon atom through double bonds as O = C = O.

And, angle between both the oxygen atoms is 180 degrees.

Hence, the molecule will have a linear geometry.

Therefore, we can conclude that when a molecule has two bonded atoms around the central atom. The central atom does not have any lone pairs. What is the geometry of the molecule then molecule has linear geometry.

B) Linear

took test

thats a little if u want the answer just look it up on google thats what i do haha : )
