bent
Repulsion of the unshared electron pairs (2)and the bonded pairs (2) around the central oxygen atom. Repulsion of these 4 electron pairs attempts to form a tetrahedral shape. Describing the molecular shape, we ignore the unshared electrons and just describe the shape of the molecule based on the location of the atoms, thus bent.
No they do not.
It is bent
Yes
The general shape is "bent".
Water molecules have a bent shape.

BeCl2
In a water molecule, there are two lone pairs of electrons connected to the oxygen. The lone pairs push the hydrogen atoms, creating a bent shape. In CO2, however, there are two double bonds and no lone electrons on the central atom, hence the molecule has a linear shape.
OF2 has a bent shape.
Bent Out of Shape was created in 1983-05.
No, many linear molecules are nonpolar. A polar substance often has a bent or otherwise asymmetrical structure.
Bent shape
Yes. For example water molecules (2 hydrogen connected to 1 oxygen atom) have a bent shape.
It is bent out of shape. It means that someting isn't what it should be. A person bent out of shape is reacting badly to a situation.
