Electronegativity of each atom is what determines the electron distribution of a bond. The electronegativity of an atom affects its distance in its valence electrons and its atomic number.
the thing that determines it is the type of molecules that are in the substance
To determine the structural geometry of a molecule, structural pair geometry must be used. These are the amounts of pairs found surrounding a specific molecule, and they are unique to each type of atom.

The geometry of the molecule actually determines number of electron pairs on the central atom. The electron pairs will be arranged in such a way to minimize the repulsion and therefore, have the lowest possible energy.
The electron geometry of a water molecule is tetrahedral even though the molecular geometry is _____. Bent
Consider: Number of bonding domains on the central atom Number of non-bonding electron pairs (lone pairs) on the central atom
electron-pair geometry is octahedral with no LPs and the molecule geometry is octahedral
Molecular geometry will be bent, electron geometry will be trigonal planar
