Which of the following correctly identifies the electron group geometry for each

Question

Which of the following correctly identifies the electron group geometry for each of the following structures?

a = tetrahedral, b = tetrahedral, c = tetrahedral, d = tetrahedral, e = tetrahedral

a = tetrahedral, b = linear, c = tetrahedral, d = tetrahedral, e = tetrahedral

a = linear, b = linear, c = tetrahedral, d = tetrahedral, e = linear

a = linear, b = linear, c = trigonal planar, d = tetrahedral, e = linear

a = trigonal planar, b = linear, c = trigonal planar, d = tetrahedral, e = linear

a = trigonal planar, b = linear, c = tetrahedral, d = tetrahedral, e = tetrahedral

Explanation / Answer

Basic arrangement of electron pairs(bond/lonepairs) on central atom gives electronic geometry.

Answer:

a = trigonal planar, b = linear, c = trigonal planar, d = tetrahedral, e = linear
