Which pair has the same geometry:
Correct answer: B. SnCI2 ' SO2
- A. BeCI2, SnCI2
- B. SnCI2 ' SO2
- C. SO2, OF2
- D. OF2, BeCl2
Explanation
SnCI2 and SO2 both have same bent geometry with bond angle less than 120 and are AB3 type with 2 bonding pairs and one lone pair.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
