Given the electron dot structure for H2OH_2O , explain why its molecular geometry is bent.

Because oxygen has two lone pairs that repel the bonding pairs, causing a bent shape

Because hydrogen atoms are larger than oxygen

Because water has a linear geometry

Because there are no lone pairs on oxygen
