Garth Doofus, my former arch nemesis, drew the following VSEPR structure. What mistakes did he make?

• Hydrogen A, he used the wrong shape to represent the depth

• Hydrogen B, he put too far to the right

• Hydrogen C, he drew it too high

• Hydrogen D, he use the wrong shape to represent depth

• Hydrogen A, he put it too far to the right
