Question:

Which of the following statements is(are) true? Correct the false statements.
a. The molecules SeS3, SeS2, PCl5, TeCl4, ICl3, and XeCl2 all exhibit at least one bond angle which is approximately 120 degrees.
b. The bond angle in SO2 should be similar to the bond angle in CS2 or SCl2.
c. Of the compounds CF4, KrF4, and SeF4, only SeF4 exhibits an overall dipole moment (is polar).
d. Central atoms in a molecule adopt a geometry of the bonded atoms and lone pairs about the central atom in order to maximize electron repulsions.
