Given information
Here the given molecule is:
Methylamine
Step-by-step explanation
Step 1.
Here the molecule ,
N atom consists of electron pairs, out of which are bond pairs and is found to be lone pairs and it contains lone pair of electrons it will impart a higher repulsion effect than the bond pair of electrons. Thus, the repulsion effect causes the bond angle to reduce from to degrees.
So, methylamine has trigonal pyramidal geometry about the amine group.
