The molecular geometry and make a sketch of each molecule or ion using the bond conventions shown in “Representing Molecular Geometries on Paper” in
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
In central metal atom is iodine. It has atomic number and electronic configuration .
That is it has valence electron and one negative charge.
