How does VSEPR help determine the shape of the molecule? A) The shape of the molecule is determined by the mass of the nuclei of different atoms in molecule, so that the mass is as evenly distributed as possible.
B) The shape of the molecule is determined by the valence electrons of the different atoms within a molecule repelling each other, so the atoms are as far apart as possible from any other valence shell.
C) The shape of the molecule is determined by the electronegativity values of the different atoms within a molecule, so the atoms are spaced apart based on decreasing electronegativity.
