The lone pair forces bonding atoms away from itself
The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
The lone pair on an atom exerts repulsion on bonded pairs of electrons, which can distort the bond angles and contribute to the overall shape of the molecule. In some cases, the presence of a lone pair can cause a deviation from the expected bond angles in a molecule, leading to a specific geometry such as trigonal pyramidal or bent.
One lone pair and three bonding chlorine pairs. General shape is tetrahedral and it's a trigonal pyramidal.

The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
A lone pair of electrons can affect the molecular shape by repelling bonded pairs of electrons, causing distortions in the molecule's geometry. This can lead to changes in bond angles and overall molecular shape.
The shape would be pyramidal because of the lone pair nitrogen has
It takes up space like an "invisible" atom.
The lone pair pushes bonding electron pairs away.
Tetrahedral bond angle of a molecule which have a lone pair electron is 107, smaller than regular 109.5, due to the repulsion of electrons of lone pair.
A lone pair is a pair of electrons in an atom that is not involved in bonding with other atoms. It is often represented as a pair of dots in Lewis structures and can influence the shape and reactivity of molecules.
