1. Examine the Lewis structure for each of the molecular shapes formed above. (ignore BrF!) Complete the following table based upon both the number of unshared electron pairs around the central atom and also the number of bond groups that are around the central atom. For example, in the following Lewis structure of PBr,, phosphorus (the central atom) has one pair of unshared electrons and three bond youps surrounding it. (Note: single, double, and triple bonds all count as single bond groups)
