#### Explanation:

- **Molecular Formula** refers to the chemical formula of the molecule.
- **# Electron domains on central atom** indicates the number of regions around the central atom where electrons are likely to be found.
- **# Bonding domains on central atom** signifies the number of electron domains that are involved in bonds with other atoms.
- **# Non-bonding domains on central atom** indicates the number of lone pairs of electrons on the central atom.
- **Electron Geometry on central atom** describes the geometric arrangement of electron groups around the central atom.
- **Molecular Geometry on central atom** refers to the shape of the molecule considering the arrangement of atoms (excluding lone pairs).
- **P or NP** stands for Polar (P) or Non-Polar (NP) based on the symmetry and distribution of electrons.
- **Hybrid on Central Atom** indicates the hybridization state of orbitals on the central atom.

### Abbreviations:
- **L**: Linear
