Below is the Lewis structure for methane HELPP Based on its Lewis structure what is the correct shape of a methane molecule A tetrahedral B trigonal planar C tr class=

Respuesta :

Answer:

C. trigonal pyramidal ..

central carbon atoms only have 4 bonded electron pairs and no free electron pairs, hence the shape of the methane molecule based on VSEPR model is tetrahedral
