Vedclass · Answer

(C) According to $VSEPR$ theory:For tetrahedral geometry: No. of electron pairs $= 4$,Bond pairs $= 4$,Lone pairs $= 0$.For pyramidal geometry (e.g.,$NH_3$): No. of electron pairs $= 4$,Bond pairs $= 3$,Lone pairs $= 1$.For trigonal planar geometry: No. of electron pairs $= 3$,Bond pairs $= 3$,Lone pairs $= 0$.For octahedral geometry: No. of electron pairs $= 6$,Bond pairs $= 6$,Lone pairs $= 0$.Therefore,the structure with three bond pairs and one lone pair is pyramidal.

$A$	$B$
$CH_3OH$	$CH_3OCH_3$
