Look at double bonds and dotted valence.
Double or more bonds equals a linear shape.
Also... 2 bonds = linear 3 bonds = linear if dbl or trpl bonded, otherwise bent 4 bonds = triginal poly Etc.

∙ 11y agoLewis structures highlight the pairing of electrons to form bonds. The number of bonds and "unpaired" electrons from a Lewis dot diagram can be used in VSEPR theory (valence shell eletron pair repulsion theory) to predict the geometry.

What is the VSEPR theory for ICl3?
Taking into account the rules to draw Lewis structures, the molecule must be written as: O-Cl-Cl due to the higher electronegativity of oxygen than Cl

What is the shape of the organ cell?
Basically the shape of organ cell depends..& It is three dimensional in nature..So,one can not predict its shape..
