Explanation:

The shape adopted by a molecule according to VSEPR is such as minimizes repulsion between electron pairs. The shape of a molecule depends on electron pairs present on the outermost shell of the central atom. The bond angles are such that electrons are positioned as far apart in space as possible, given the number of electron pairs present.
