Valence shell electron pair repusin theory (VSEPR) can be used to perdict the approximate shape of molecules. Electrons in bonds and in lone pairs can ve thought of as "charge cloud" that repel one another and stay as far apart possible, thus causing molecules to assume specific shapes. The repulsive interacions of electro paris decrease in the order : Lone pair-lone pair gt Lone pair -bond pair gt Bond pair -bond pair. These replusions effect result in deviations from idealized shapes and alternative in bond aegles in molecules. The species which has pyramidal shape is :
