Explanation:

According to Valence Shell Electron Pair Repulsion Theory, the shape of a molecule depends on the number of electron pairs on the valence shell of the central atom in the molecule.

For all the compounds listed, the central atom has four points of electron density. This correspond to a tetrahedra electron pair geometry. The presence of lone pairs on the central atom of OF2,NF3 and H2S accounts for the departure of the observed molecular geometry from the geometry and idealized bond angle predicted on the basis of the VSEPR theory.

answer; the numbers of valence electrons in the acetic acid molecule (ch3co2h) is 24;
