The shape would tend to be trigonal pyramidal. An example would be ammonia, NH3.

Nonbonding pair (lone pair)
CO2 does not have unshared pairs of electrons.
1 pair. which means 2 nonbonding electrons.
A phosphorus atom has one nonbonding pair of electrons.
The nitrogen atom in ammonia has one unshared pair of electrons.
they are the same. Lone pair is unshared pair of electrons and bond pair is shared pair of electron.
A Lewis acid is therefore any substance, such as the H+ ion, that can accept a pair of nonbonding electrons. In other words, a Lewis acid is an electron-pair acceptor. A Lewis base is any substance, such as the OH- ion, that can donate a pair of nonbonding electrons. A Lewis base is therefore an electron-pair donor.
The molecular geometry of H3O+ is Trigonal Pyramidal because it has 3 bonding pairs and 1 nonbonding pair (lone pair)
1 pair
bonding of a covalently bonded hydrogen atom with an unshared electron pair
Covalent and ionic bonds all have a shared pair of electrons and hydrogen has a pair of unshared electrons.
