The OsbCl3 ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape
When a central atom is covalently bonded to five substituents, the shape is trigonal bipyramidal.
It is pyramidal.
the ammoniun ion has a tetrahedral molecular shape. It has four groups of electrons surrounding the nitrogen atom. The fact that the ion has an overall charge does not affect the shape.
Lone pairs do not affect the shape of diatomic molecules, and Lone pairs are electrons that are not in bonds. Lone pairs do not affect the shape if they are not on the central atom.
Lumpy.Once you get beyond a single central atom, in general there isn't a simple way of describing the shape. The methyl group will be essentially tetrahedral and the carbonyl carbon will be flat (trigonal planar), but the overall molecule doesn't have a simple shape.

linear
The molecular structure of dichloromethane, or Methylene Chloride (CH2CL2), is tetrahedral, with the hydrogen and chlorine atoms peripheral to the central carbon atom.
Tetrahedral. It is because in this molecular the central atom S have four bonds and no lone pairs. So the shape must and must be what I said.
The molecular geometry of a compound helps to determine polarity because, it indicates the number of lone pairs on a central atom thus giving it specified angles and polarity (only if there are lone pairs because if there are no lone pairs on the central atom, them it is non-polar).
In binary compounds the more electropositive atom is consider as the central atom as in inter halogens for example in ClF, the cl is the central atom.
It depends on the hybridization of the central atom.
It's a molecular shape with a class known as AX5. There are 5 ligands with a central atom. Note that there are no lone pairs, indicating that it also is not polar.

it may be predicted either by no of electrons around the central atom of the molecule or by type of hybridization process of orbirals of central atom....
the geometry of the central atom is trigonal pyramid and the shape of the compound will be bent
