Answer: The geometries discussed in this chapter all lend

Chapter 10, Problem 10.121

(choose chapter or problem)

The geometries discussed in this chapter all lend themselves to fairly straightforward elucidation of bond angles. The exception is the tetrahedron, because its bond angles are hard to visualize. Consider the CCl4 molecule, which has a tetrahedral geometry and is nonpolar. By equating the bond moment of a particular CCl bond to the resultant bond moments of the other three CCl bonds in opposite directions, show that the bond angles are all equal to 109.5
