What are the principals of the shape of molecules?
Electron repel each other, so electrons try to move as far away from each other. Bonded pairs of electrons repel each other. Lone pairs repel more than bonded pairs

How do you know if the structure is Giant Covalent Lattice or Simple molecular lattice?
Simple molecular lattice occurs when the is a molecule bonded covalently. In Giant Covalent lattic there is only one element and no set number of atoms so it is not a fixed molecule.

Tetrahedral
What shape is NH4+?
Tetrahedral
What shape is H3O+
Pyramidal
