Oxygen difluoride
molecular geometry is bent, electron geometry is tetrahedral
6 and 1 out of2
OF2 gemometry: sp3 hybridized atoms adopt a tetrahedral geometry. Becasue of the sp3 orbitals contain lone pairs, the VSEPR model indicates that the molecule has an overall bent geometry. The bond angles should be less than 109.5 degrees because the lone pairs repel each other more than the bonding pairs.
