The electron geometry of SBr2 (sulfur dibromide) is tetrahedral due to the presence of four regions of electron density around the sulfur atom: two bonding pairs with bromine atoms and two lone pairs. However, the molecular geometry, which considers only the arrangement of the atoms, is bent or V-shaped because the lone pairs repel the bonding pairs, altering the shape.
